Hebrard Industrial Suites

Hebrard Industrial Suites

10/10 Excellent
"Best hotel stay in our five weeks in Greece. Two oustanding features. One, the shower was full man size with sun shower. Two, down the hall were free washers and dryer. The room overall was large including a couch, very comfortable bed and a big refrigerator. There was some street noise, especially the first night where there was a rock concert, singing and drumming. I heard later that the police were called. That never occurred again during our stay. The only other suggestion would be to put a shelf in the shower for shampoo and soap so I don't have to bend down. Not a big deal."
