Lito Hotel

I will give my most sincere and open opinion about my experience at this hotel, highlighting both the positive and negative aspects. Let's start with the good things!

### POSITIVE POINTS:
The hotel is reasonably close to the airport, and we can easily take a direct bus there. It is also near several restaurants and convenient stores, which can be very handy for anything we might need. The room is of a good size, and the double bed is excellent with a super comfortable mattress. It also has a nice balcony with a view of the pool and the sea.
The beach is right in front of the hotel with sun loungers available, unlike the beach next door where you have to pay
The receptionists, like Ms. Jota and another gentleman whose name I forgot, are very friendly and helpful, as is Elfi, the lady from the pool bar. The pool is also very good, with a maximum depth of 3.50 meters.

### NEGATIVE POINTS:

As a young person, I am not very demanding since I consider myself quite flexible, but there are some things to reflect on.

The bathroom is not very good, the shower is very small, and it's hard to move around without knocking over our hygiene products. If you are a couple and want to shower together, forget it because there is literally no space, it’s small and cramped. They also do not provide shower gel, only shampoo, so you end up washing with shampoo on your body. The room also does not offer a kettle for making tea or coffee, which didn’t matter to me since I had breakfast included.

The pool closes early at 6 PM, it could close at 7 or even 8 PM to make the most of the sun and good weather.

The internet could be better as it has some issues.

Despite bus stops being near the hotel, the buses that pass by are often full and don’t stop at the stops. I recommend waking up early to catch the bus if you want to see the center of Rhodes. If you want to rent a car or a scooter, that’s also possible and quite affordable.

As for crosswalks, I don’t know why, but drivers there don’t feel obligated to stop. If you don’t step into the road, they won’t stop, and even if you do, you have to be careful when crossing.

I was on a half-board stay (breakfast & dinner). The breakfast, although a safe and OK positive, was limited. It had bread, croissants, cheese, ham, eggs, butter, and 'Nutella.' Some of those croissants were hard due to exposure time, which is normal. Besides that, the breakfast was also targeted at the British people: beans, mushrooms, bacon, sausage – things they eat which I am not a fan of at all.

As for dinner, I would say it is below what Greek food is, one of the best cuisines in the world. Unfortunately, it left a lot to be desired. The food was also limited, and there wasn’t much choice. Always two types of meat, like turkey and pork, and a fish – that’s it. There was also pasta that varied according to the day, but even that was disappointing, with only two days where I had a good cream-based pasta. Other than that, it was disappointing. There were dishes that seemed like leftovers from lunch or the day before. They weren’t very tasty, not well-seasoned, and I was unfortunately disappointed.

### OVERALL:
Given the quality-price ratio, I can't complain much as I stayed for a week and overall, it was pleasant+ staying. The main disappointment was the dinner. However, it was an overall pleasant experience. I would give it a 3 if I had to rate it. Would I return to the hotel? Most probably not.
