Giannis Studios

Having read some of the reviews of Giannis studio since our return from our two weeks there , I do wonder what people expect from a Greek studio apartment in Greece! So here are my thoughts on it. Having travelled around Greece for many years I sort of know what I'm going to get from this type of accommodation, basic, one room plus bathroom studios, Giannis is no exception. The room was clean, enough space for two for two weeks and plenty of wardrobe and drawer space to put your clothes. We had a lovely balcony overlooking the pool and bar area which could get a little noisy, but people are on holiday what do you expect. We did have a problem with one of our chairs on the balcony (it collapsed when sat on,) we reported it, it was replaced within the hour. As with alot of Greece the plumbing leaves an awful lot to be desired, our shower was a constant battle between scalding hot/freezing cold/slight trickle/blasting, more than once the shower room floor flooded, bit of a pain but no biggie. And yes, the informous cockerel and barking dogs, during our stay we didn't hear any dogs but we did hear the cockerel most early mornings, it's rural Greece, what do you expect, close the windows, put the air con on, you'll be fine. My biggest complaint is the bed linen and towels, none of them were as clean as they should be, I had small stains on both more than once, now this really isn't a complaint against Giannis, the laundry is sent out to be done, I saw the van most days, however Giannis Studios you are paying for this service and the laundry you are using is not providing the service it should. Special mention must go to Anna and Angelos who run the bar, they are super nice people and work so hard and also to Fotine who came to the rescue when I locked us out of the safe. Giannis is a typical Greek apartment, in a lovely setting, just don't go with unrealistic expectations.

One of the best hotels i've ever stayed in.From the moment i left the coach to be greeted by Fortuni,Anna and Angelo.Your holiday starts and you feel like a family.They can't do enough for you and i was sad to leave.Hospitality and great food and drink what more do you need.Raymundo and Ann are the resident PR's.😎

just returned from a lovely stay at giannis,have been travelling to alykes for twenty years and have stayed at most accomodations,the staff at giannis are the most accomodating helpful and friendly people i have met, angelos who runs the pool bar is on hand and they cannot do enough for the guests,the food served there is very good and comparable to the village their no pressure atitude is refreshing.although apartments are by no means top spec th,ey are clean and comfortable and the pool is lovely and clean.all in all a lovely relaxing place and i have just rebooked for 2020,highly recommended.
