How long does it take mail posted in the UK to reach Zante? Does it go via Athens? Thanks

Zakantha Hotel - (Accommodation in Argassi)

Mr M           

Stayed here in September, thankfully just for a week! Initially were given a "road view" room, which was ridiculously noisy, but managed to change to another, which from a noise aspect was a huge improvement, although internally both rooms were the same - on the surface very clean, but the furnishings and carpet had seen better days. How this place has a 4 star rating is beyond me. Contrary to previous reviewers, we found the reception staff  OK, reasonably friendly and easy to deal with. Monica who works the bar was nice enough, if a bit "in your face". To be honest, she was over the top! However, she could teach her fellow Romanian, Luciano, a thing or two about manners and dealing with the public. He is the hotel's sole waiter, serving coffee at breakfast time, working in the snack bar during the day, and generally shuffling around with a face like a smacked backside. Unless of course you're a size 10 blonde or a group of dutch friends he had staying at the hotel - he's a puppy dog then! Otherwise be prepared for surly service! He didn't seem to charge his friends for food from the snack bar, lucky them. Also overheard him telling them how he has various keys for rooms in the hotel, which he uses to "entertain" lady friends! Hope he didn't have a key for our room, didn't make my wife feel very secure, knowing that. On the whole, unless you've got a cheap deal, I'd avoid this place.
