We booked this hotel thinking it would be a bit dated, but clean and well-kept.
We were disappointed that upon arrival the floors were gritty with dust. We wiped the floors with a towel because it was 1 am when we arrived.
There were some dead bugs along the walls and a few live centipede sightings (it happens, but the old doors do not seal well and the bathroom was consistently damp so it seemed to attract more bugs).
We did get fresh bedding and towels each day. We only received instant coffee in our room on the first day and after that had to ask for it from the front desk.
The bathroom was the most disappointing aspect of this hotel. It was very dingy and had clearly not been upgraded for decades.
A few small touches like a regular bathroom mirror (as opposed to a tiny flimsy plastic one), a small vanity or countertop to store toiletries, and an actual shower cabinet that can be cleaned instead of a curtain, would make all the difference.
Water gets all over the floors during a shower as the curtain hangs outside the basin anyway.
We had probably the squeakiest bed I’ve ever heard, so if you are a light sleeper be prepared to wake up whenever your partner turns over. My husband mentioned this to reception after our first night but it wasn’t fixed and continued to squeak to the point where he just ended up sleeping in the other single wooden bed instead, a bummer during our honeymoon.
Upon checking out we could see obviously one of the bed supports was broken (pictured) which would have been an easy fix.
We appreciate that this was more of a budget option compared to other hotels in the area, but were overall disappointed in Prekas given how easy it would be to improve the guest experience with a small amount of effort and updates.
I would give the apartments 4.5 stars if I could!
Firstly, the views and price of the captain suite with jacuzzi was 5* – with one shared balcony and a private one on top with the most breathtaking views. I would recommend booking this room – excellent value for money.
Staff very friendly and helpful. Everything is really clean. The location suited us perfectly, close enough to restaurants, walkable to fira but still very very quiet.
The pool was cold so we didn’t try it.
The only things lacking are a lack of breakfast options (Jimmy’s cafe was available to deliver very easily however was slow arriving and not very fresh and healthy food choices). And the apartments are in quite a windy location so it was quite unbearable sitting outside during the high winds last week.
Fira is not far from the hotel, the view is amazing šš„, the staff was very helpful, kind and smiling. We had plenty of space inside and outside.
The pool is not that big but it’s empty most of the time, so you can enjoy it alone.
They left us juice and water when we arrived because we checked in late.
The toilet is so small. The bed isn’t comfortable and is so noisy. The wifi is not catchable in the room nor outside and there is no network if you want to use data network. It’s more of an airbnb Appartement than a hotel room, the hotel norms are not really respected.
We loved Prekas Apartments @ Imerovigli: the highest point on the caldera. Lovely staff and reasonably priced; but most importantly, the only place that could guarantee each room has a perfect view. Plus the all-important pool. It’s a long way down to the beach. Most smaller places don’t have a pool, and the larger ones charge a fee for outsiders to swim.
I timed my walk to the main square of Fira at 22 minutes, despite all the stairs and the inevitable photography stops. There’s a shortcut with a less spectacular view, for when you stagger home.
Also the perfect spot to access the climb to Skaros Rock (scary-arse) and the crater rim path to Oia; both of which we wanted to do.
But the best thing was watching those glorious sunsets from our own terrace, or better still, the pool, in complete privacy at peak season!
Just perfect. I stay in the smallest room but even the smallest were enough. The balcony with a amazing view (all day not only in the sunset) and far from the crowd to have a relaxing time but a few km from Oia or Fira. The staff s very helpful and all is clean.
