Hotels.com indicates this place is 4.5 miles from city center. Turns out it's 4.5 miles... as the crow flies, across the bay. If the crow is taking a cab or driving, he must go around the bay, and it's closer to 12.5 miles over winding, 1-lane roads, taking about 40 minutes from Mytilini (and 28 euro fare). Shame on Hotels.com for misrepresenting this.
Hotel is lovely, but so remote that you will need a car to get anywhere. Owners are animal lovers, so have taken in stray dogs (5, I think) and cats (4 or 5) as well as a few frogs/toads who are loud enough at night to keep guests awake. I'm serious! These animals are as loud as dogs barking.
Overall, nice place, though internet was dodgy and hot water never got more than tepid. My showers were short and cold, which may be why they won't heat the water more than tepid. Pool was too cold to swim. Food prices are exorbitant.
If you like being in a far-off apartment next to the bay, cold showers and with nothing near you, then this is the getaway for you. Just rent a car; its cheaper than a cab.
Oh, and bring ear plugs. The frogs are here to stay.
