I just returned from Corfu. We (a friend and I, both 22 year old students) stayed in the century resort for one week. We booked a single room appartment, when we arrived we were suprised about the size of this appartment. There was a nice little kitchen, togehther with a living room (so kitchen, one table with 4 chairs, 2 sofa's and a little tv. There also was a very clean bathroom with a bath and a sleeping room, with 2 seperate beds. One double bed and one single bed. In the kitchen/livingroom and in the sleepingroom were both seperate airconditionings, but we only used them the first days. Afterwards whe closed the blinds and let the windows open during the night.
So no real complaints about the room, except for a leak under the sink in the bathroom (but i suppose this will be fixed soon). It are good and clean rooms, but a rather sober (which is normal for a 3.5-4 star hotel).
The rest of the hotel (restaurant, swimmingpool, reception) were also clean. Also the poolbar was very nice this year, because of the always smiling girl in it. She served very nice cocktails :) But the garden around the hotel and pool was not realy tidy (some mud around the pool, the lawn was rather long, ...) . Maybe this was just cause it was the and of the summer season, but who knows.
The worst problem was the kitchen. Every day there was something differt to eat, for example there were every day patato's but one day they were served cooked, the other day like french fries or ... . So no problem there. But after a few day staying in the hotel, half-board (so breakfast and dinner), I heared a lot of the geust became sick. After a half week I also became sick. Just like all the others I threw up once at night, had a bit fever for one day, rested the entire day and was healthy again after one day.
Afterwards we just stayed eating in the hotel, but didn't get sick again. But others did, so probably there was still something wrong in the kitchen.
An other problem they have over there are the mosquietoes. Even if they burn special candles and you use anti-mosquito-products, they still bite you A LOT! I have more than 20 bites in one foot and more than 10 in one leg. So be warned about the mosquietoes.
Would I go back? To this hotel, no cause I never go back to the same hotel. Would I recommend it to some one? Yes, but I would tell them to be carefull with the food. So it's a realy nice play to stay with very kind people, but the musquietoes are part of the deal.
Ooh yeah, for party animals, don't book this hotel, cause it's in a nice village, but almost no nightlife. For families with children, couples of all ages or people who love visiting things by scooter, motorbike, car or bus this is ideal. (by the way: corfu = cheap rentals)
So enjoy !!!
