Yes, there are lots of cashpoints near Jimmy's. they are in the main strip, which is less than 5 minutes walk. you can't beat Jimmy's for location, but what a horrible place to stay. Honestly, these appartments are terrible.

Well, we booked Jimmy's as the Manos' brochure described the accommodation as basic but highly recommended. Whilst the location is excellent and the pool area is nice and clean and new, it certainly does not make up for the estate of the accommodation. When the door to the apartment was opened for us, my heart sunk. I think what the meant by basic was grotty. The kitchenette units and the sink where so old, they looked like they were about to fall apart, again because of age, they didn't look clean. The electrical appliances looked like they would catch fire if you dared to plug them in. As for the bathroom……. To start with, it was so small you could not swing a cat. There was no shower curtain and the toilet seat was overlapping the shower tray, which made showering a bit of a difficult affair!! Between the fact that the shower did not have much pressure and one minute it was ice cold and the next it would scald you; and the shower head was so old and full of lime scale, that the water just squirted a bit of water to the sides, making it impossible to rinse your hair. To flush the toilet, you needed to push a button up on a small rusty water tank hanging from the wall, which was in such a bad condition, that water would trickle down your arm every time you flushed. The maid would clean your room every other day if you were lucky. The main problem with this is that, as everywhere else in Greece, you have to put your used toilet paper on the bin rather than flushing it down the toilet. Now, can you imagine the smell in a tiny hot bathroom with a bin containing two days old used loo paper?? Not nice, let me tell you!! At the beginning of the second week, I had to ask the maid for clean bed sheets and towels, as they had not been changed once. The maid could not understand me, (which is ok, I would never complain about that. After all, I can't speak Greek either!), so she took me to the shop downstairs so they could translate for me. There, they made me feel like I was being unreasonable, by asking for clean stuff. I would never recommend Jimmy's to anyone, not in a million years. I have photos of everything I described above, but unfortunately, I can't upload them here, for some reason.

As for the rep, at first she appears to be really cool, until you realise that she actually could not give a damn about you and your holiday. Customer service at its worse, I thought. When we asked her to move elsewhere, she asked us to pay a fee in excess of 600 Euros. I would never, ever travel with Manos again
