I stayed at The Secret Garden in the single room (Room #1) for 5 nights in July and found the place to be perfectly adaquate for my needs. My room had a mini-fridge, a kettle to boil water, ceiling fan, comfortable bed, TV, safe, cabinet, decent private bath...everything I needed. The place is located only maybe 5-to-10 minutes walking distance... more

Close to the centre, bargain price, lovely little room with character, great A/C, decent bathroom, good size.... what more could you want!! There is a 'slight' issue with the fact there is no reception... but that's cool - just phone them! We arrived early... rang, waited ten minutes and our charming host arrived... having spoken to his charming mother. Lovely... more

The "secret garden" is a perfect, small hotel. we were at the suite which was more then perfect, it was very spacious, the bed was amazingley comfterble, and the price was the cheepest we paid in Europe. the only bad thing is the fact they don't have a reception, after saying that I have to be fair and say that... more

Breakfast was served on the roof top in their gardens and was wonderful. The we had an assortment of breads, juices, jellies, fruit... more

They quoted me with a price of € 72 for a double room and then when I tried to book online they told me the rate inputted by myself was incorrect. I forwarded back their email with... more

Spent 3 nights in the Secret Garden. After some problems tracking down the owner, eventually got checked in to a clean and spacious ensuite room with ceiling fan (very necessary as it was sweltering!). Unfortunately, despite having booked ensuite accomodation for the whole stay were told that room had been given to someone else for the subsequent two nights so... more

First of all to some people who had their meanings in some negative way about some staff....just knowing how hard it can be to run a couple of hotels, where you as a tourist can lay down, relax and have a great time... it needs lots of good organisation and lots of pressure...so second of that...MY COMPLIMENTS! You guys are... more
