Removed claim of hotel--there is no support for this claim and google maps/earth clearly shows there are no structures on this tiny, less than 200 meter wide, island. Also removed claimed alternate name of Vryonisi/Moss Island since that is a different island (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vryonisi).).
