    The other reviews made us think the location of this particular property was in a good location, however if you plan on spending any time in the city I would strongly advise against staying here. It is very far away from anything else, with only two restaurants and a small supermarket within walking distance. Taking a taxi would cost more than 40€ and the bus only comes 5-6 times per day to the village. The bus ride takes around an hour, and the roads are so narrow and the frequent turns and stops make you easily car sick. If you plan on staying out later than 6:15pm for example, the only bus back is at 11pm. The beds are very uncomfortable and the whole apartment needs to be renovated. The kitchen sink tap’s hot water doesn’t work. Kitchen utensils and appliances are very limited - we didn’t have a kettle or a toaster. There wasn’t a hair dryer and the shower in the bathroom would run out of hot water in the middle of showering. The tap water is not drinkable! While this is fine, and we were fine drinking bottled water, this information was not told to us when the owner showed us the room. We asked a staff member the next day, after already have drank the water and used it to make tea. The supermarket is a 15 minute walk from the property and carrying heavy bottles of water and other groceries under the heat is not sustainable. The beach is close and the water is beautiful, but again I would advise staying closer to the city if you plan on spending any time there.

    Property response:

    First of all, half of your text refers to an entire region and condemns it as one of the worst, when it is demonstrably a gem not only of the island but of the entire Mediterranean. The crystal clear waters of the sea, the unique landscape with the salt lake and the cedar forest, do not exist anywhere else. Of course we have peace and quiet here, that is what people are looking for. If you wanted the hustle and bustle of the city, you could stay in Naxos town and have fun until the morning. You write about the route as an hour by bus. It is not my fault that you chose this means of transport, nor why you paid 40 euros in a taxi. They usually ask for 60 euros. But you were not willing to spend a single euro. I came and picked you up with my car because you were lost, I gave you everything you asked for, from information, fruit from the garden, to an umbrella for the beach. You took the apartment's chairs on the beach and the towels without asking, because you couldn't have a mat or a towel to sit on......You write that there was no kettle or toaster, but I don't mention anywhere that the apartment has them. You give 2.5 for cleanliness, when in the 4 days you stayed we cleaned you every day and changed your sheets and towels in between. You left an apartment in the trash and in the stench, towels and sheets useless. It took half a day to clean it. Of course we don't need customers like you. Obviously, you would see in the parking lot of the accommodation, very expensive cars, of people with status and level, something that unfortunately you did not have.
