Cheap, Basic and Friendly
Louvre hotel is very basic and very cheap - everything works, nothing is luxurious - which was exactly what we were expecting. The free aircon represents a further saving of about 5 Euros a day compared to some other cheap rooms/studios. Faciluties were basic, the buffet breakfast was perfectly adequate, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The other guests were mostly Nordic/Dutch and German people in their 40s-50s and some were a bit loud (getting up at 7:30am and talking loudly in the corridors sort of thing - don't they know I have a hangover?!) The pool was lovely and the hotel bar was good value. Wifi was limited to the foyer/bar/pool area which wasn't a problem.
Gouvia itself was nice enough - lots of good places to eat and plenty of bars. The stoney beach and calm bay were very picturesque although the snorkelling wasn't as good as I was hoping. The highlight of Gouvia is Captain Spyros and his boat trips - we did the boat BBQ and it was very enjoyable.
