To say these apartments were dirty, is an understatement. We arrived at the hotel late afternoon on the 11th May 2008 to a very dirty apartment. One of the wardrobe doors was hanging off, which in itself is very dangerous. The walls in the living/dining/kitchen area were splattered with what I can only described as left over food. The curtains in the living room and bed rooms were mouldy and stained. The bathroom walls and ceiling were covered in mould and the tiles in the bathroom again were full of scum and mould. The two-ringed cooker hob was grimey and greasey. As you can probably guess we went straight to the owner to complain. He moved us to another room.
This was only marginally better. Again the curtains were mouldy and dirt stained and in this room they had the additional extra of being ripped to shreds too. The bed sheets were stained, the carpets were stained and again the cooker rings were grimey and greasy, however it was late at night now so we agreed to move rooms and give it a go.
We reported these problems to our tour operator, who in turn gave us an emergency number for any problems we may want to sort out. How grateful we were of this number over the next few days.
We had cockroaches in the wardrobe, my husband had to check my clothes before I could put them on each day.
I put the cooker rings on one day to actually attempt to make some breakfast....... this was when the cooker rings decided to blow up on me, covering me in beans, there was a load bang and blue sparks coming out of one of the rings!
Needless to say we moved to a different hotel.
I would not go to the Lucky Apartments ever again or even recommend them to my worst enemy.

Set in the Idillic location just 200 yards away from a ‘beach’ made of stones and shingle, Lucky hotel resides in between the power station to the East and the large collection of oil refineries in the West. The optimistically named ‘Larnaca Bay’ is made up of 3-4 beach front hotels, several 60’s throw-backs, 4 hire car and 6 taxi firms (as well as 3 restaurants including a pizza hut).

As two 17 year old travelers on our first holiday without parents we needed maximum bang for our buck. Although the holiday itself was a great experience, Lucky sometimes left a little to be desired.

As naturally optimistic people, we would like to think we made the most of our stay.

Our first impressions were that of a hotel that was somewhat dated in comparison to parent-funded holidays! After taking 'The Death Lift' to the 1st floor, we stumbled along the dimly lit corridor (we later discovered there was indeed a light switch - and it did take until day 2).

Apartment was spacious for 2 however sharing with 4 could have been very uncomfortable - especially for the 2 who would have to take the dated sofas. Bathroom was in dire need of updating and the smell of urine lingered for the duration of our stay (it really wasn't us!).

On 2 occasions we were greeted with a cockroach upon returning to the apartment. Which we took lightly and we will no doubt be look back and laugh.

The addition of free wi-fi was convenient for contacting relatives, however, they use the term 'wi-fi' in the same way they use the term 'bathroom' - loosely. The connection was slow and would not reach past the lobby area.

The pool was nice and well kept with plenty of sun beds and amenities and the beach in only 200m away - however this is a shingle beach, although a safe, sandy beach is a short walk away.

There is a restaurant serving food throughout the day - however breakfast is somewhat lacking, comprising of toast, choice of 2 cereals, some meat and cheese (which looked less than apetising) plus tea and coffee Food in the hotel it is well priced although there are many other affordable eateries.

To conclude, Lucky provides the basics to those with a tighter budget. All guests were light-hearted and happy, some of which have visited Lucky in the past and vow to return again!

We stayed here for one night in Larnaca. It was cheap, so we picked this one, but it was not worth it. although the 18CP seemed a good price, the room was very old, dingy, and dirty. We found bugs and rusty sinks and tubs. The furniture was a bit old and even the kitchnenette needed some work. The dishes and plates didn't seem too clean to me. The room we were given seemed not to be swept well and cleaned well from our point of view.

they also charged extra to use the air condition, which i thought was unfair. we ended up not using it and not paying for it.

there is a small pool, but as we got there in the evening, we didn't get to use it. i would definitely not recommend this place.

only good thing about it; there was free wireless internet in the lobby.
