these are my comments on the elpida, i hope you find them usefu, we stayed in room 335, sleep was impossible, behind the block a pair of cockrels went c**k a doodle doo from about 2 in the morning till 8, the sound of barking dogs was also incessant, the bathroom stank and the toilet dripped water constantly from it's rear end which was noisy and offensive, room cleaning was poor, the beds are thin and hard and the rooms are dark and depressing, the place is in poor repair with overgrown verges and litter and wasps nests untouched for the two weeks we were there, i have travelled widely in my time - i am 40 with a 3 year old child who came and i would honestly not recommend it, please give it a miss, others we spoke to there were also not happy. please feel free to e mail me at jonm4sherman@yahoo.com

i stayed here for one night in august before being moved to alikanas after complaining. please, please, please don't make the same mistake we did and give this place a miss. i am 40 with a wife and three year old child, and it was just impossible to stay there, we were given a studio apartment which was actually outside the main hotel and right next to the main road, above a chinese reataurant, adjacent to a greek restaurant and next to a bar on the other side, the noise from the road, the music in these places, arguments in the street etc., was truly horrendous and went on all night. when we challenged the rep, his comment was - oh they usually shut the music off at around one am - yes mate, but 3 year olds go to bed a bit before that !! another couple with 2 daughters were also complaining about room 101 in the main hotel. the childs play area is a joke and the childs pool impossible to sup**vise unless you perch awkwardly on the edge or spent the whole time in it. the whole resort from our point of view was very poor, with an awful beach and a modern really awful main drag with people trying to pull you into every shop and restaurant you passed. please give the hotel and indeed argassi itself a miss
