Lofos Studios - (Accommodation in Alykes)

click to enlargeclick to enlargeclick to enlargeclick to enlargeclick to enlargeWe are sorry to have to report that after having spent a week at the Lofos that we were really disappointed with the place. When we finally arrived after been delayed for several hours we went straight to bed, however we didn't get to sleep for very long when the loud music coming from the pool bar woke us up. There was food etc in the cupboard and fridge from the last occupants so as to weather the room had been cleaned prior to our arrival is questionable, the bath and sink were also dirty, so we asked to be moved to the other building, which the rep sorted out for us. In the second room the standard of cleanse rose slightly, however the room flooded every time the bath was emptied, this wasn't too much of problem except that the towels were never changed, I did however find clean towels on the washing line. The day the cleaner was in I had a look at the cleaning stuff to find something to clean the bath myself , all she had was a very dirty bucket of water and a very big smile ( lovely lady) . We did purchase some cleaning equipment and cleaned the cups and plates ourselves. The walls of all the apartments were smeared with dead incests and blood from previous mosquito attacks. The balconies were never cleaned the whole time we were there and another resident said she'd been there 2 weeks and hers hadn't been cleaned either, the flies and ants were gathering. They electrics were a bit frail, our light socket was held in by a pen, the bedside light flickered all the time and one of the plug sockets was hanging off the wall. The pool area was ok, but a charge of 1.50 for the sun bed cushion caused a lot of people to go out for the day, the pool filter was only turned on once the whole time we were there and there were a lot of incests floating in the pool all the time. We didn't eat at the bar at all as we didn't trust their hygiene standards but others did, two of them were ill while we were there, but the local doctor diagnosed them with a gastric illness. Our flight was leaving at 5 in the morning and we were been picked up at 2, we asked for a price to keep the room on and were quoted 35 for the pleasure, we declined and moved in with some friends for a couple of hours. Some people staying at the lofos had stayed a couple of years ago and said it was cleaner and a lot better them, its like the place has been totally neglected for the last few years ......

Busters - (Bars in Alykanas)

Just got back from our first visit to the island, we had breakfast every day at busters and have to say that the hygiene standard in this bar is excellent, and the food was very tasty. It was busy for breakfast but still John had a chance to have a chat and gave us good advice on what to see and where to go. The ice cream van is called izzy and plans to do an ice cream run in a year or two (depending on the paperwork) but there is the best ever ice cream for sale in the bar itself, the flavours are fantastic and it is all made on the premises. Dont be put off by the name, call in and have an toffee ice cream ....
