8 Street Studio.

8 Street Studio. Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked into 8 Street Studio, I honestly wasn’t expecting much from a three-star place in Kremasti — but you know what? This little gem completely surprised me. The studio has this clean, minimalist vibe that feels way more upscale than its rating suggests. It’s tucked away on a quiet street, which I actually loved because you get that authentic Greek neighborhood feel without the tourist chaos.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s the thing about Kremasti — it’s perfectly positioned if you want to explore Rhodes without staying in the packed old town. You’re about 15 minutes from the airport (super convenient for early flights), and the beach is literally a short walk away. I mean, the locals clearly know something we don’t because this area has that lived-in charm you just can’t fake. The fact that couples rate this spot so highly makes total sense — there’s something romantic about wandering these quieter streets in the evening.

The Studio Space

The room itself is smartly designed, and I appreciated how they maximized every inch without making it feel cramped. The kitchenette is actually functional — not just for show like in some places. I was able to make proper coffee in the morning and even whip up a simple dinner with ingredients from the local market. The bed was comfortable enough that I didn’t wake up feeling like I’d been wrestling with it all night, which honestly happens more often than I’d like to admit when traveling.

Practical Perks

Let’s talk about the parking situation — it’s free, which is basically a miracle in Greece these days. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been hit with surprise parking fees that nobody mentioned during booking. The whole setup just works well for couples who want their own space but don’t need all the bells and whistles of a big resort. The Wi-Fi was solid, the air conditioning actually cooled the place down, and the shower had decent water pressure (trust me, these details matter after a long day of sightseeing).

Why Guests Love It

What really struck me about this place is how it nails the basics without trying to be something it’s not. The 8.8 rating makes perfect sense when you consider the value — you’re getting a clean, well-located studio with everything you actually need, not a bunch of fancy amenities you’ll never use. The location score of 8.7 from recent guests tells the real story here. Sometimes the best travel experiences come from places that just get it right, and 8 Street Studio definitely falls into that category. It’s the kind of spot where you can settle in, explore Rhodes at your own pace, and actually feel like you’re experiencing the real Greece rather than just passing through.
