We booked this in june just gone for a week all inclusive from 13/10/11 - 20/10/11, got there after a 13hr delay on our flights because of strikes in greece so we were tired hungry and cold, whilst traveling we saw how bad its got, the island was a diaster, tons upon tons of shops were closed so there was hardly anything to do, buildings left unfinished so its a constant health hazard were ever you go in rhodes apart from rhodes town ( which you would have to be rich to afford anything, £35 for pj pants ...... ) Got to the hotel after driving all over this dismal island for 40 mins. first impressions were good, got the key to our room, went up to find a decent size room but was cramped full of furniture which was falling apart ( two single beds pushed together with a bunk bed, a wardrobe, a coffee table, two chairs and a desk with a broken tv on) so you were constanly knocking yourself on things and squishing your way round the room and a bathroom which was a health hazard (on the small side with a bath which would serve better as a sink it was that small. A shower which wouldn't stay on the wall and kept falling apart. You could only get luke warm water in the afternoon) The room had a balcony. It was extremly small but had brillant views ( we had to pay 10 extra each person so that was another 30 ontop) Although they had squeezed a plastic table n two chairs onto so you couldn't move out there it did catch the sun in the after ( thats if it wasn't peeing down) It was absoulatly freezing at night though !!! All they provided was a thin flimzy sheet, it was a nightmare just to get blankets ( we each ended up with 3 each but then it was just so cold my mum, dad and I ended up kinda huddled into the two single beds trying to get warm enough to sleep. Now the food ..... horrid... so horrid you wouldn't feed your worst enemy it ! it was just horrible and im not a fuzzy person. It wasn't warm or edible so you had to eat out for all three meals (even though we paid for this) so that was an extra 40 euros each time for a decent meal.The promised snacks and cakes were nowhere in sight !!! The owner and his wife were so rude to not only the guests but to his own staff which when we arrived was only two, a chef and a poor barman who had to serve two bars and sort the food out and also see to any requests of the guests. This poor man was shouted at so loud it echoed around the hotel, the owner was banging stuff on the desk calling him names right infront of guests. It got so bad the barman left so now we had no staff to serve us our drinks for over an hour, then two of their sons turned up and lectured us in broken english sayin we drunk we causing trouble and scaring his parents, the alcohol was disgusting so were merry but way withen our limits and because there was no entertainment, we made our own and just jumped into the below zero pool. The beach bus that is promised, you were lucky if it showed up because it was hit or miss. On the plus side the beach was beautiful but full of stones and the water was just amazing. So clear you could see the fish as they swam and all the rocks on the sea floor. It was cold when you first got in but it warmed right up once you got swimming. It is soooo salty though so the snorkel gear were out. I think if it wasn't for the fact i had my parents with me and had fantastic other guests to fill up some of our time I would of had a rubbish time. My parents made it for me ( im 18 so a week with your parents being the only good thing happening ..... it must be boring). SO TO FINISH .... RHODES HAS GONE DOWN HILL. NOT MUCH TO DO, MAJOR EXPENSIVE SO BE PREPARED TO COME BACK BROKE AND NEVER EVER GO TO THIS HOTEL ! IT WILL BE THE BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER BECAUSE ITS DEFINITLY NOT A PLACE FOR CHILDREN AND YOU WILL HATE IT. STARVED, COLD AND BORED MAKE FOR A VERY BAD HOLIDAY.
