Alecos Hotel Apartments

Great location and a decent pub/restaurant attached to the apartments, that has entertainment most weeknights - though, strangely, not at weekends while I was there. Scot, George, who seemed to do everything from reception duties to impromptu comedy in the bar was a charm, and the ladies that worked there were all pleasant, cheery and helpful. That's all the positives done. Another staff member, Manuel, who worked the bar/restaurant, seemed to treat every request as a chore, and would greet a food order usually with a grunt at best. The accomodation. Oh dear. We chose this because of the decent number of 4 or 5 reviews given, and, I don't really understand people giving these scores for this place. We spoke to several different guests while we were there, and all confirmed what we thought too. I know reviews are subjective, but a lot of them of these apartment are perplexing to us. Our apartment was the most basic I have ever stayed in. The facilities given are the bare minimum. Cheapest furniture available, all the soft furnishings smelled and were stained. Maintenance is almost non-existant. Towels and sheets all had a yellow tinge, with every towel being all frayed or had holes. Our shower head had the worst water pressure ever, took forever to heat up, and came out as a dribble. The main door to the apartment needed re-hung, as it dragged along the floor and was difficult to open, the safe was unuseable ... the list goes on. We didn't use the pool, but were told by other guests that it was quite dirty. Repeated mentions on other reviews about the noise from the nearby club were well founded too, and a quite audible boom, boom, boom from late evening until around 4am WILL disturb your sleep, in block A at least, even if you wear earplugs. In all, no, wouldn't recommend the apartments to anyone, but, if you know what you're getting and would still go, then, best of luck to you.

Great hotel in a fantastic location close to lots of lovely restaurants, sites, and the harbour/beach. Don’t expect the Hilton - the accommodation is cheap and cheerful. George the owner and all staff are friendly. We were a bit worried about the noise from bar street and Friends bar but the rooms are so well sound proofed we only noticed when sitting outside on our balcony.

The room was basic not very clean the bed was very had all stained with blood and ripped. The shower did not work and we had to move room the shower door was hanging off. There was grime and old food on the bedside cabinets the air condiction was very noisy the fan was blocked with dust in the bathroom kept getting bitten with flee,s so wont be staying hear again

Great holiday,Hotel very central to everything,we where given a room in block C.which was very quite Air con not so good .pool area great always got a bed.Staff really nice.Food in friends bar good.Bed very comfortable, would definitely stay here again.

We stayed at alecos apartments twice this year good value for money the accommodation is very basic but functional the friends bar as really good entertainment the staff are very efficient and helpful we are back again in June 25 looking forward to that

Great place to stay. Nice pool and plenty of loungers. Staff were very helpful. George and Emmanuel to name just a couple. Was a little noisy of a night due to nightclub but a few beers helped me sleep. Will be returning in the future. Weather was fantastic and drinks and food very reasonably priced. It was easy to visit other places, beaches etc all over the island with an excellent bus service. Jayanta Indian restaurant catered for all 23 of our party and food was exquisite with a free complimentary brandy to finish.
