I was surprised reading the other 2 reviews on this site about these apartments. We stayed in them in June 05, and were happy with them...they were booked through a private travel agent, so not sure if perhaps he has his own apartments, as notice a lot are sold seperate.
We picked them as impressively handy for staggering back from the pubs at night beside the veronicas strip.
We found them clean, and always provided with clean towels/linen (afraid can't remember how often both were changed, but cleaners were in every day).
The pool area was clean and empty, only ones about were the reps/PRs who seemed to stay permanently, but they never appeared til afternoon.
We never tried the pool bar so can't comment on the food. There are, however, 2 restaurants at the bottom of the steps. If heading down the steps go first on the left, they do great food and even better cocktails but are quite expensive considering, put on all he UK soaps though, so kept us amused at dinner time! The one to the right is very small, but fantastic, food is brilliant and really cheap, can get full english breakfast for €2. The staff are great 2, they used to put on a film for us in the morning when havng a breakfast and could get the rest of it wen arriving down for dinner....as well as good supply of lollipops! haha! (again apologies that i can't remember the name of the eateries)
They had cheek to charge a euro a day for a sun lounger though, we were quite happy to get lilos though, so could sing for their money!
There was only 2 main complaints, one there was no toaster and couldn't rent one. Also, i notice the review about the room being broken in to, unfortunately this was true on our part also, as my mobile phone was stolen from the apartment, but there was no forced entry, so believe it was one of the staff. Wasn't put in safety deposit, as these are in the reception area which is closed at night (although security on 24 hours). Can hear the noise from some of the pubs at night too (especially the Jamaican pub, managed to brush up on my Bob Marley songs, but that was ok as seemed to get stoned just walking by the place on way home at night anyway!).
Minus the problem of the theft and toaster, still had a brilliant time here, and never spotted any insects on my 10 days!
Perhaps it has changed in a year, but if so, don't understand why the price of accommodation has risen?!? I'm now unsure whether to chance trying to book for May or not!!
