When we checked in and entered the room, at first we were in shock))) Prints of sneakers on the wall, old furniture, all the style and furnishings from the 70s, the lack of e-mail. tiles, although it should be, since there is a kitchenette... There is a gloomy hostess at the reception, if your English is lame, then you are unlikely to understand her, and she will pretend that she does not understand you. He answers all questions and requests in the negative (((((Found a maid (most likely an Albanian or Bulgarian), she was kindness herself for 5 euros, gave out both a tile and a set of dishes.
Then the mood gradually improved. It turned out that on the corner at 10 meters there is a mini market with very good prices, there is a bus stop right there, to the beach from the hotel with a very slow step of 10 minutes, there are 2 rooms in the room and it is very convenient, air conditioning and a refrigerator work, there is a balcony overlooking the pool and the main street, it is very pleasant to drink wine there in the evening, there is no particular noise from the street. And the next day, bingo! Breakfast at the cafe that provides food from the hotel was very tasty and nutritious, and besides, the waiter and the institution itself are simply charming. There are only 3 types of breakfast, but if you alternate them, you won’t get bored in a week.
Thus, thanks to the good location of the hotel, our vacation went slowly and economically, we did not climb in the heat, we could go for a walk and return at any time. Sometimes they dined in restaurants, sometimes they cooked at home or simply warmed up ready-made meals.
Therefore, there were more pluses than minuses!

We did not plan our stay at the Androthea Apartments, but after we were confirmed only 5 days at the Eleana Hotel and there was no alternative, we ended up in this hotel with an additional payment of 42 euros. Immediately there were mixed feelings, but from the next day we could safely say that this hotel was better than the previous one.

We did not plan our stay at the Androthea Apartments, but after we were confirmed only 5 days at the Eleana Hotel and there was no alternative, we ended up in this hotel with an additional payment of 42 euros. Immediately there were mixed feelings, but from the next day we could safely say that this hotel was better than the previous one. Of course, my husband was embarrassed by the fact that we had to get together the day before, and in the morning we spent only by the pool, and we were settled in a new hotel after 14-00 and we lost another 2 hours of good rest, but in the future our vacation seemed more comfortable to us . Everything is relative. The Eleana Hotel was in a quieter place, and when, approximately in the middle of the night at the Androtea Hotel, for three nights in a row, a child screamed in the next room for half an hour with the words “mother in her arms” - and no one reacted to the cry, it seemed that the parents had gone for a walk, and the child was alone in the room... (we have already met this on the Black Sea), then I really wanted to come and take him and calm him down. We left our 3-year-old child at home to rest, but because of irresponsible parents, we had to listen to the screams of someone else's child... For half a night, music played in bars and karaoke was heard, then a garbage truck came and emptied the tanks with a roar. . . and here is the morning ((On the 4th day they got used to it.
The hotel is located on the street of bars and meals are served in the Napa Star cafe - the same standard breakfasts turned out to be different, most often we ordered an English breakfast. In the cafe at Elean, the same breakfasts and service were much better. From this hotel the view was more gorgeous, and we were given one of the two rooms in the hotel above the reception with a huge balcony, but the working area of the kitchen was very small (compared to Eleana) and there was no cleaning, only garbage was taken out and the foot mat in the bathroom was changed , while the floor was never wiped, and the sink for washing hands is very small and not comfortable, so there were always splashes. There were no adapters, no detergents with washcloths, unlike Eleana, in this hotel either. It is forbidden to swim in the pool after 19:00. Wifi was in our room.
We went to the beach as before to the Melissi hotel - there is a sandy entrance, although the nearest beach was 5 minutes closer. They didn’t congratulate me on my birthday at the hotel ((. And we went on a boat ride, the captain and host congratulated us, treated us to cocktails, international guests sang Happy birthday, danced, swam twice in turquoise waters, had lunch, examined different caves, Bridge Lovers, etc. - we really liked it. We also went on a semi-individual tour Heart of Cyprus - we liked it, but not very much, we expected more. Perhaps the reason was that in the minibus next to it, across the aisle, there was a girl who was sick all the way along the serpentine in the package, so looking out the window from her side, looking at the sights and generally in her direction was not convenient and not pleasant ((. And the information was poorly perceived. Lunch and drinks (white and red wine) were included in the tour, the cafe was at a height 1200 m above sea level in the town of Prodromos, there was a buffet with meat meze, salads, potatoes, pasta, couscous and sweets, but knowing that there was still a way back along the t to the same serpentine - not everyone ate and drank. Therefore, consider the capabilities of your vestibular apparatus when choosing such an excursion. They swam in the sea, where Aphrodite came ashore from the sea foam. We visited the monastery of Kykkos, the Church of Our Lady, the Museum of Byzantine Art, the village of Lefkara and the wine-growing region of Commandaria, tasting the wine. We ourselves went to the Blue Lagoon and walked along the shore of Cape Greco. In general, we liked the rest, the hotel left pleasant memories, and we would also like to return to this wonderful island, to visit new places we have not explored. Thanks to my husband for a wonderful birthday present. : -*
