Hotel ratings by criteria:
The place is ambiguous. This hotel will not get 4 stars until the manager LARIS is there. I will be objective first pluses: really close to the sea-5min walk with a child-leg by foot. . wonderful views from the balcony (but starting from the 2nd floor, on the first floor it’s like in a dugout, I wouldn’t like it, we lived on the 2nd floor, from the 3rd floor the view is even more beautiful). Cleaned every day, a cleaning lady from the former USSR, going to meet vacationers. . I personally came to my room when it was convenient for me and my child. The pool is divided into adults and children, there is a paddling pool, which is VERY important for the little ones - the paddling pool warmed up very well, there were no problems with swimming. The hotel is really clean. The rooms are nice, with a kitchenette and a small bathroom. There was always hot water. The hotel is not big, a lot of couples, a lot with children, because. e. the environment is very good. The FOOD is excellent in my opinion! The fact that the hotel is given a low rating for food is not completely clear to me personally - I am indifferent to meat and was wildly delighted with vegetables, sometimes baked, sometimes in batter, very tasty beans. . and the presence of watermelon in any quantity and salads with olive oil flavored with lemon. . mm and a strudel or something similar is beyond praise... Yes, they carry / carry food from a neighboring hotel, but always (! I declare responsibly the child and I got up at 7 in the morning and each time we saw that the food was brought closed either with a towel or foil)... the meat was also in the form of cutlets, two types of sausages, chicken, fish, turkey, I don’t eat it, I’m just indifferent, but my baby and my relatives ate it, they praised it. . wonderful white and black bread, pasta, rice, potatoes... in the morning, the standard is scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, cheese, ham, cookies, cake, coffee, milk, peaches from a can (my little one drank juice from these peaches with pleasure), oil, olives, muesli, and corn flakes. Cons - The first thing that catches your eye is a garbage dump that stinks and stands literally right behind the hotel's fence at the exit from it. . it’s not clear what prevents cleaning up washing with a hose under the garbage dump... a non-working fumigator in the room, until we realized that it was not working, a day passed, mosquitoes just ate us. Air conditioning is not a condo, it is a fan that practically cannot cope with the cooling of the air, why lie when describing the hotel... a torn mosquito net, according to polls in the rooms after one. . There is NO Internet on many sites indicate that there is a safe for a fee, which is not written everywhere. The pool is not washed, just a little bit of water is added because of this, every day the bottom became more and more slippery - it's just not safe, for children in particular. Olives are the same, too salty, in the country of olives, such scarcity. Drinks are a different story - we had water in the room once upon arrival, one bottle... when we tried to take it from the bar, it was refused and figs with him, we went and bought it, but it’s onclusive no matter how... drinks suck, diluted Yupik without gas, my baby was spitting for a long time. . something that is cheap with gas and exactly copies cheap lemonades... how can this be offered to me at all, it’s not at all understandable, outright evil for the stomach, but it’s probably very cheap... There is practically no sound insulation. . and it’s okay that from the street, close the balcony, it will be quieter for you, you will “die” from the heat, but in silence....And then there are the nearby noises. . horror. who peed, who drained the water, who swore in all languages ​ ​... still terrible insomnia all 6 nights... what is connected is not clear, and the child did not sleep well and I... the beds were moved but the mattresses were not fixed in any way. . we were constantly moving around, I had to get up to push... a couple of young people lived nearby with my relatives on the 3rd floor, they were actively engaged in sex) and so it was not just audible, but VERY audible... And all these are trifles that can be safely experienced against the backdrop of a beautiful Fr. Corfu, its inhabitants, this murmuring language and unhurried life, as well as the magnificent sea, clean and warm, if it were not for the administrator LARIS, God grant her long-term health with such “difficult” clients like us....The speech habit of poking with a turn, my dear, to everyone in a row... at first it just jars the ear, then infuriates... because Larisa's eyes remain blocks of ice, her smile is mean and insincere... And now an example of a specific misunderstanding that spoiled for me personally all the sensations from the rest because it happened on the very last day before leaving: …. On the first day, the guide Tatyana from Konalas Travel gathered us and said, there were 6 of us sitting, that someone could leave later than 12:00, you can extend your stay in the room for 30 euros. . we vigorously discussed the high cost of renewal, but for myself I decided that yes, ok, I’ll take it into account. . tell me you will clarify the information received, confirm? No, of course, the official said, and fine... the penultimate day is coming, I go up to Larisa and politely clarify about tomorrow's extension of the number - the answer is vague. . We'll decide everything tomorrow morning. . no where, no one, much less that it was IMPOSSIBLE - it didn’t sound... in the morning I run from 7 in the morning (! ) looking for Larisa, they answer me that Larisa is slipping, but for God’s sake I think, a lot of tourists stopped in yesterday, a tired person. . time 11.45. . my relative checks on the account of the extension and they answer her, but I grit it I don’t decide, go find out to the neighboring hotel -Ionias Princess-50m to go-beside him..... but it’s already 40g outside and I have a falling asleep child in my arms for 3 years. . ok, I’m going (and she has a phone at the reception. . what is it worth to the PROFESSIONAL, whom she thinks she is, to make a call and resolve this issue)... there Love is again Russian-speaking. . I give money and say that I would like to extend my stay until 4 pm… then the performance… she: this service is not possible, we do not provide such services. . me: perplexed, indignant, how is it ? ? The guide told us a week ago. . she: the guide can tell you anything, you could misunderstand him and she is a representative of a travel agency and not a hotel employee... I’m in a stupor, I’m starting to panic because Larisa didn’t say no yesterday, and everyone who was present heard the guide... I start cry, not because I personally really need it - I have a falling asleep child in my arms and an absolute lack of collection of things... she: who sent you to me? me: Larisa Lyuba is dialing Larisa and turning on the speakerphone, and Larisa, again, God forbid she is healthy, begins to say indignantly that she told me yesterday that this is impossible ! ! And warned YESTERDAY that you should not contact her. . and that she has been working here already for THREE whole months and cannot but know such simple things... I stand as if spat upon. . I'm trying to explain that the guide said that I asked Larisa yesterday and did not receive an intelligible answer. . . Luba does not believe me. . I start to get angry and growl at her - unworthy? Probably, but I have a child in my arms, for the comfort of which I bear 100% responsibility as a mother. . then it gets even funnier… Lyuba asks me to slow down the aggression towards her and offers to sit in the hall while she tries to resolve this issue. . calls somewhere, speaks Greek and gives me:....this service is free for visitors to Thinalos, please go to your place and rest until 16.00... CURTAIN... I go sobbing from the excitement experienced, I come to Larisa to clarify whether I can go to the room? bezulsovno joking, but do you think she was embarrassed?? ? NO, she ran into me in her familiar manner - that I excited everyone here and already go to the room in the end and rest, my dear. . I asked not to be so impudent with me, I'm not here for free. . to which they answered: UNTIL 4 pm you are here for free, the conversation is over, my dear, that's it. . and turned back. . . I don't want to go to this place anymore. . . but the place itself has nothing to do with it. . the attendants are all nice and kind, the Greeks, as I said, the islanders are charming. . excellent service in restaurants. . but I was the first time in Greece, oh. Corfu for me is the very window into another world. . Larisa has become the personification of Corfu, sadly... I'm certainly reasonable, but the feeling is spoiled. . otherwise, if you don’t have to face Larisa personally, you won’t even believe me. good rest everyone
