The location can’t be beat, especially if you are arriving or leaving by ferry. The hotel, however, is very, very tired. As other reviewers have mentioned, the carpet in common areas is in sore need of replacing, and the room fittings have not been touched in decades. Similarly, the tiny bathroom was lacking even a shower curtain for the shower and was very basic indeed. A bit of a spruce up would go a long way. For the price, there are better options a bit further away from the port and much, much better options in other parts of the island.
Great little boutique hotel off the main track of Mytilene. Must have been an old house converted and really enjoyed it. No elevator and staircase is steep and narrow for luggage but rooms are good size and all different. Attic room is tight and low ceiling. 1 block form great little bars and restaurants and 2min walk to waterfront. GREAT breakfast buffet. Definitely recommend.

Mythical Coast is very nice, but feels like a 3 star hotel -- they list themselves as a 5 star hotel. The building is modern and clean and comfortable. The room was excellent. The staff is very friendly and they work hard. We really liked them. The hotel seems understaffed. The staff may be capable of creating a 5 star experience, but there are too few people working there to do that. The outdoor pool is nice but had loud music. I didn't see a life guard. The 3 indoor pools are wonderful. Really great. Warm, warmer and very warm to choose from. We learned later that they are appointment only and are not free to use. The breakfast buffet is just ok. The dinner is mediocre and expensive compared to island prices. The beach requires shoes to enter and exit the water. The Aegean Sea is wonderful. You can take a short taxi ride to the Karpouzi Beach Canteen which has easy access to the water (no shoes needed) and food service. The sauna and hamam require reservation. There isn't much to do within walking distance of the hotel, and there aren't any activities at the hotel. I highly recommend renting a car for 70 Euros and driving to Molyvos. It's about an hour away and you can spend a full day eating, shopping, swimming.
