Underwhelming for the price. We stayed on 4 different islands during our trip, this was somehow more expensive than Mykonos and Santorini so our hopes were high it'd be great. It's a great location, right by Ios port and beach. The beds were firm and the room air conditioning wasn't great, neither was the bathroom and shower. If I were going back to Ios, I'd look for somewhere else to stay.

I had a great room with amazing views! Seems like it’s being managed by lovely pensioners. Very close to the port. Only 15mins tough hike to the village.

Great stay!
Really good stay for a group of friends travelling together. Lovely and clean - clean sheets & towels provided everyday! 5 mins walk (if even) from the port & bus stop. Bus goes every 20mins up into the village. Very easy to get around transport wise. Staff are friendly and very helpful. If travelling with a group would definitely recommend staying here.

The rooms are basic but ours had nice view of the port from our balcony. Staff were very friendly and helpful with any questions we had. It's a 5 minute walk from the ferry to the hotel, and everything in the port area is walking distance. There is a bus stop by the hotel that takes you to the middle of town. The pool was a huge plus. Note: most people staying here are in their 20s, so don't expect it to be a quiet hotel.

GREAT HOTEL!
Since this is a backpackers hotel, lots of people complain that it's not amazing. Yes it's not a 5* hotel. For a backpackers hotel, you have a fantastic clean pool, a pool bar that serves really tasty food and a good price, and it stays open til late so always good to pre-game. Beds are comfy, you have air con, shower works. Great view if you have the side of the view, if not the other side is great to make friends. I've been to Armadoros twice already and I would go back again if I go back to IOS!

Terrific Accommodation
Hotel staff was friendly and hospitable. The pool, bar, and front patio are a real treat. Also, the location of the hotel is perfect, which is within walking distance from the main port. We each had a big suitcase and were able to walk from the port to the hotel within 5 minutes. A slight hill climb and the road is bumpy, but manageable with wheeled luggage. #OsborneAdventures

Friendly and Accommodating Hotel
The hotel wasn't very nicely locatedckose to the port and only a 10 minute walk to the centre. The pool was fantastic, the food delicious and the staff are absolutely wonderful and so accommodating. My friend and I had the best time and plan to stay here again next year!

Great stay by the port.
Stayed here for our time in Ios and it is a great location for the price. Super close to the port (2 min walk after your ferry) and right near the bus station to take you to any beach or club. Very friendly and helpful staff. Minimal wifi in rooms but great wifi by the pool.

The Wifi isn't great and we couldn't get it in our rooms. Very close to Chora where you will find the amazing nightlife. Also close to the port for ferry access.

Hotel sconsigliatissimo
Il peggior Hotel di sempre! NON PRENOTATE. Accoglienza pessima, camera sporca, nessuna pulizia giornaliera e lenzuola sporche nonostante abbia chiesto di cambiarle più volte. Appena arrivata ho cercato un altro Hotel dove soggiornare ma era tutto pieno. I proprietari sono scostumati e poco disponibili. Frequentato da ragazzi ubriachi che disturbavano a notte inoltrata.

Esperienza pessima
Esperienza pessima, hotel sporchissimo.. appena sono entrAta nella stanza c’era una puzza assurda di fogna nel bagno, e un’unghia sul davanzale del bagno (che non è stata mai tolta) e per di più per farti pulire la stanza devi chiederlo alla reception perché loro altrimenti non la puliscono.. la piscina ha il fondale verde per quanto è sporca..in generale è sporchissimo. Non lo consiglio nemmeno al peggior nemico

We loved our stay! The poolarea were really nice and our room had everything we needed. The walk up to the city were a bit hard, straight up for 10 min. But a really beautiful town that we enjoyed spending time in. Also the hotel is close to the port, some restaurants, a supermarket and renting cars/ATV!

Not the best
We stayed there for one night and there were ants everywhere. The bathroom smelled obsqure and things were coming out of the well of the shower. The towels were dirty with different kinds of stains. They had a nice pool tho and the hotel was located close to a kind of hospital and the bus station as well as the ferry port. Overall it could have been better.

A localização é ótima. A infraestrutura das piscinas e bar estão muito boas. O hotel poderia melhorar as camas e chuveiros. Um pouco de barulho a noite devido ao hotel ter muitos jovens. Reclamamos e o barulho logo parou. Mais recomendado para jovens viajando sozinhos.

Très proche du port et du bus stop
Le bâtiment n’est pas récent (type 1980) mais il a été bien entretenu. Accueil familial et chaleureux. Belle piscine. Grandes chambres propres. Salle de bain un peu datée mais propre. Préférer les chambres économiques à l’arriere car plus calmes.
