Full review

Stayed here with 2 female friends in early September. We were looking for a good bargain and we found one.

I was pleasantly surprised at the standard of accomodation as I ahve stayed in several 'cheap' hotels in Greece. Our rooms were large and although basic, they were clean.

The location of the hotel is rather remote. It was quite a trek into town/the strip. At night it wasn't that well lit so I would recommend you get a taxi.

The staff were very friendly and one went out of his way to retrieve a camera I had left in a taxi.

The food on offer in the bar is basic but tasty. There isn't much choice but there are tavernas and a shop locally.

There are 2 pools availabe. One is large, with lots of space to sunbathe.

At night the bar plays dvds (some of which aren't out in the UK yet) and we found that if we started our night off there we often got free or very cheap drinks.

Everyone seemed friendly (but some are def a bit chavvy as the other reviewer said).

I never cooked in the apartment so can't comment on the facilities but the bathroom is pretty basic (as are most greek hotel bathrooms).

There is free internet access in the lovely reception area which I thought was good.

The only thing I didn't really like was the beach (not very clean/nice) and also the location. But for the price we paid I wouldn't coplain and I'd go again.
