Lovely Apartments

Such a lovely and clean place to stay, staff are friendly and very helpful nothing is to much trouble for them. About 10mins from the beach at a leisurely pace or 5mins if you walk quickly. Super market is next door which stocks a good range of products and reasonably priced.

the lacation

I am not altering my views on the cost of the extras ie safe and air con. both quite high for weekly hire. Also the the potential hazard that could be caused by not having a shower curtain to curtail the water from the hand held showers.

Good value for money

This was a great hotel for the money (£21) - my son and I stayed for 1 night prior to our flight home. It was very convenient for the airport, and it also meant we got an extra afternoon on the beach (10 minute walk). Very convenient for supermarkets and restaurants. Very organised and friendly staff.

Great hotel with lovely staff great for familys

we moved here from langans due to being sent to an 18-30 hotel, we have 2 children 2 and 6, these were well catered for and the owner was very friendly. in fact all the staff were very friendly. they own a shop next door but found this to be quite expensive compared to the competition, although very convenient with friendly staff. overall we really enjoyed the stay due to the clean and spacious family rooms and the great location of the hotel.

Already booked a return visit!!....

A fantastic base for a holiday on a beautiful Greek Island. The accomodation provides everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing break. The staff are fantastic - very welcoming, entertaining and prepared to help you with any request!! The supermarket attached to the complex caters for any additional requirements you may have, and if you're a fan of sport you can pretty much gurantee that you can catch whichever match / race you're intersted in on one of the many screens in the sports bar. There is a well equipped, secure playground for the little ones near the pool area, and plenty of sun loungers for the sun worshippers amongst you! We enjoyed a fabulous 2 weeks here and are looking forward to our next visit!!...

NOT IN ATHENS, GREECE AS ADVERTISED

I put in a search for a hotel within 5 miles of the airport in Athens, Greece and found this hotel popped up as the first one. Booked a room and after two hours of driving around on a wild goose chase had someone tell us it is on a Greek Isle. So not sure what they have clicked that advertises it as close to the Athens airport, but they need to fix it. This cost us a LOT of money in time, new hotels, taxis and stress.

only suitable for young backpackers

my wife and I were not impressed at all regarding the overall quality and service of the hotel. I realise that we only booked for a hotel a few days before but we could not find a 4 or 5 star hotel so we ended up with a 3 star. But we stayed at 3 star hotel at another part of Greece and at least they had a TV, working lights, change of towels every day and not every 3 days, and they wanted to charge extra for the use of the air conditioner, and finally the shower was obviously meant for younger people due to its small size.

Avevo prenotato una camera standard ma quando sono arrivata non ho trovato quello che avevo visto nelle foto : porta comunicante anche se chiusa con la stanza vicino dove si sentiva tutto, bagno con doccia senza neanche una tenda dove si allagava ogni volta uscivano blatte e senza neanche un phon, una finestra di vetro dove alle 7 di mattina entrava luce e dovevi svegliarti per forza. Ho dovuto pagare 60€ per l' aria condizionata che potevo usure solo ero dentro la camera. Non sono rimasta per niente soddisfatta anzi penso di avere speso troppo per il servizio ricevuto dove dovrei ricereve almeno un indennizzo.

Motsvarade priset

Hotellets läge motsvarade vad som uppgetts. Servicen var god med trevlig hotellföreståndarinna. Renligheten på rummet kändes inte särskilt bra. Badrummet var inte trevligt, då det saknades duschdraperi, strilande vattenstrålar ifrån både dusch och handfat samt att det kom upp vatten från golvbrunnen. Svårt att inte vada omkring i vatten efter att någon duschat. Priset var lågt, så det kanske inte kan ställas högre krav än vad vi fick. Området var okej, men jag kommer nog inte att återvända till detta hotell. I övrigt var Zakynthos ett helt fantastiskt resmål som jag varmt kan rekommendera. Underbart vatten, fantastiskt trevliga människor och mycket bra restauranger.

Trevlig och hjälpsam personal

Bra läge,fina promenadstråk,nära till större ort och till stränder,supermarket i samma byggnad, väldigt trevligt bemötande överallt.Rekommenderar starkt Kalamaki som semesterort på Zakynthos.Framför allt billigt hotell.
