Pals Studios Pefkos

Will give everything 5star

5* Location 5* Pool 1* Room Key Situation. This place is perfect if you plan to be tied at the hip to your friend / Partner / Travelling companion. But if you intend to spend any time apart you quite simply cannot stay here due to a truly ridiculous key situation. There is only 1Key and the electricity key is locked onto it so impossible to remove and the door locks automatically when closed. Good for security yes. But a quite ridiculous situation if you plan to spend any time apart. It is not possible for 1 person to be in the room with any electric while the other person is out with the key. This would not be such a problem if the person in the room could leave the door open or someone blocked but that is not possible. If one person goes home earlier than the other and then falls asleep you will be locked out your room and with no staff members to help the only way to get in will be to knock loud enough to wake up your sleeping partner. They will then the following day threaten to kick you out with no refund for making too much noise late at night because you were drunk. But it had nothing to do with being drunk it was because I was locked out of my room because you made it impossible for one person to be in the room without the other a truly ridiculous situation. Would advise the owners revise the key situation then it would be a great place to stay!

Abbiamo chiesto riparazione doccia rotta e dopo due giorni che non provvedevano abbiamo protestato. Il proprietario ci ha minacciato e ci ha cacciato, davanti ai nostri figli adolescenti spaventatissimi. Siamo dovuti scappare senza sapere dove andare.

Wir waren von der Unterkunft durchweg begeistert und fanden alles ausgezeichnet. Der Pool befand sich in einem tadellosen Zustand; wir haben bereits zahlreiche Hotels gesehen, aber einen derart perfekt gepflegten Pool sind wir bisher noch nie angetroffen. Wir werden definitiv wieder in dieser Unterkunft Urlaub machen und sie gerne weiterempfehlen.

Der erste Blick in die Toiletten Schüssel verriet, das die Reinigungskraft vor Übergabe des Zimmers lediglich die Betten überzog. Unsere Hoffnung, dass am darauffolgenden Tag die Reinigung bestimmt durchgeführt wird, wurde leider auch die folgenden Tage nicht erfüllt. Es wurde in einer Woche weder gereinigt oder zumindest der Müll geleert ( benutztes Toilettenpapier muss über einen Mülleimer entsorgt werden), geschweige Handtücher zur Verfügung gestellt. Die waren jedoch dringend notwendig, da der Abfluss in der Dusche nicht richtig funktioniert und diese dann überlief. Das "Studio" wurde Mal vor langer Zeit ganz ansprechend eingerichtet und auch das Bad war bestimmt Mal ganz hübsch. Doch mangels Pflege und Hygiene ist die Einrichtung in einem völlig desulaten Zustand.

Great location and cleanliness of accommodation!

Ho soggiornato presso questa struttura per due settimane quest'estate. Sapevo già cosa aspettarmi avendo letto le recensioni, e tutto è stato confermato. All'arrivo, nessuna reception, ma solo una bacheca con un foglio con il tuo nome con scritto il numero della camera e le chiavi direttamente nella porta; il check in lo abbiamo effettuato solo qualche sera dopo incrociando di fortuna il proprietario. Monolocale carino, con un armadio e un piccolo angolo cottura (pentole, piatti e bicchieri disponibili ma per cucinare giusto due piastre - mai utilizzato) e mini frigorifero. Piccolo bagno ma sempre ben pulito. Devo dire che il bagno è stato organizzato male poichè, essendo piccolo, con la porta che si apriva verso l'interno eri sempre costretto a fare una sorta di percorso per andare al bagno (il wc rimane nascosto dietro la porta). Doccia un pò scomoda poichè il getto dell'acqua era un pò scarso e riuscivi con difficoltà a lavarti i capelli (occhio a chiudere bene la tenda se no si allaga il bagno). Due letti separati con due piccoli comodini, una piccola credenzina e uno specchio. Tutti consigliano l'aria condizionata perchè effettivamente fa molto caldo e senza non riesci a dormire (servizio a pagamento, cifra -a mio parere- esagerata) Terrazzo molto spazioso (quasi più grande della camera) attrezzato con due sedie e un tavolino. Manca un piccolo stendibiancheria o due fili per stendere i costumi e asciugamani ad asciugare, infatti si stendeva un pò dove si riusciva.

If you are a bunch of guys or backpackers who are use to roughing it and are just looking for a place to crash thats clean, very basic and near the pubs, bars and restaurants then this will suit you. Its very cheap we got it for under £100 for the week. We are a couple in our 40s who have visited Pefkos over the last ten years and have stayed in expensive and cheap. Our room was very noisy (room 16), due to music from Pefkos by night until around 4.00am, our apartment was not in main block as they were full, it was on ground under the owners to the side of main block, so had to get a/c to sleep as couldnt leave patio door open due to noise. Cooking equipment consists of 2 cereal bowls, 2 x cutlery and one pot, So if you want to make a breakfast you will have problems, also ants on patrol at the sink. Beds comfy, think new mattresses. Lock on front door broke (old lock needs replaced), owner replaced key but still had major problem locking and unlocking door, became a nightmare! all taps hard to turn on and off, shower has no where to hang shower head so if like me you have long hair and trying to wash it u will have a problem, water sprays everywhere and bathroom became lethal. Bathroom door lock jammed, I got stuck in it, boyfriend had to bash it open to rescue me. It has a Tv but around 6 Greek channels only no English or Sky news, waste of time having it. Owners mum gave us into trouble for leaving patio door open whilst we went in and out hanging towels, think she was moaning about the electric for a/c, which is a joke as we paid £50 euro for it! Not very cheerful. Would recommend you pay a bit extra and go to Tzambiki Studios just down the road, we go there for a cheep week but thought as this was cheaper we would still have a view. No view from our room just an old field, view from main building blocked by old scabby building. Tzambiki studios all have Sea views on first floor, clean, Quiet, well maintained though basic, essential cooking equipment and Costas speaks good English, by comparison I wont be returning to Pals. Pefkos as always, is brill, mypefkos.com is doing a grand job of cleaning up the place as streets very clean and new benches and lots of bins. Attended the second Greek community gathering which is newly organised and had a great time. Pick carefully if you want basic and cheap as thats what Pals is!
