.We have just returned from Tsilivi.

This was our fifth and LAST time at the Strofades. The standards have slipped from our first stay there. The pool was filthy and was not cleaned to an acceptable standard until our last day there, we were told that the weather had been bad over the last week so it was  not been possible to keep it clean, other Pools in the area were clean though. The Lift was not working in the block we stayed in and it would seem, had not been for some weeks. The first week, the room we were in had NO water coming out of the hot water system, we were told after a few days that the pipe work was made up with salts and could not be cleaned out until the Hotel was closed at the end of October. We were moved to another room after a week, we had water but it was cold. After many comlaints by me and other guests work was done to try to resolve the problem but this was not a complete success, we only had HOT water for 3 out of 14 days. During a power cut while having a disscusion with one of the receptionists (the one with an American accent), I was told that water and electricity were luxuries and we should not take them for granted (not sure if it was a joke but if it was, I did not find it funny at the time and do not now).My impression is that this Hotel is going downhill fast and needs a lot of money spending on it if it is to survive (which I doubt). In spite of being there before, the last time in June this year, we will NEVER stay at this Hotel again.
