Taygetos

One really needs to include the word “lodge” in the directions, otherwise you will end up twice in the wrong place, and locals will tell you Taygetos is, in fact, the mountain. Once you’re on the property, it’s BEAUTIFUL! You’re in the middle of an orchard and the views are breathtaking. It’s like you’re actually living in Greece because it’s not commercial at all. The place is clean and bug free. We stayed on the top floor and it was quiet, so quiet that when a squirrel goes across the roof you think someone is outside, trust me, don’t try to pull up the blinds, though, they may be better attached when you arrive. The furnishings are spartan, (get it?), but you will be going into town, so you won’t need a TV (you’ll live). It’s about a 15 minute walk to downtown, but it’s a nice walk. The shower is a wet bath, so you can check off two tasks at once. The bed was comfy, even for tall people, and an extra heater was in the room. The owner was communicative, though his English was way better than my Greek, we still had a barrier; which brings me back to the beginning of the review.

Address listed- wrong- had to call owner to be told correct one. No lights when arrived at property. Small, flimsy sheets/blanket/towel. Water from bathroom went down to kitchen/bedroom. Bathroom small. Not much toilet paper

This is a nice self contained apar**ent with stunning views and a beautiful yard. The area was quiet apart from the neighbourhood dogs. Its close to the main street of the city and the major attractions. My only issue would be that it is advertised as having cooking facilities but it doesnt but thats not a big deal with so many options nearby.
