OMG!  Surely it can't be THAT BAD??   My partner and I have booked to go for 2 weeks in August - it was a spare of the moment thing, it looked lovely in the brochure so we booked - meaning we hadn't checked the reviews .  We can handle basic as long as its clean?  If anyone has any pictures of the accommodation I could see I would really appreciate it as I cant seem to find anything on line only pics of the pool and bar?

Is it really that bad??  We have booked a studio for 2 weeks, but I am seriously considering changing my hotel at the weekend as I keep hearing horror stories!  We dont mind basic but a bit of space is a must we dontreally want to be stuck in a tiny room for 2 weeks? Also air con?? Does anyone know what the studios are like and if they have air con?  If so can you let me know so I can decide whether we need to re-book?  thanks!

Yes let me know how it goes, we go on 13th Aug for 2 weeks, we have decided to stay put as we really like the look of it in the brochure and if it wasn't for me looking up reviews we wouldn't have known any different till we got there!!  We dont want a palace as it was a cheap holiday -  just a base to sleep and shower as long as we can do both we will be happy  I have also been told that air con can be hired for 40 Euros?  So wish us luck we might need it - LOL!

Oh well, we go on Thursday so wish us luck!!  Any pictures of the rooms would be greatly appreciated!  I would really like to see where we will be living for the next few weeks!!!

Well I have to say that it doesn't look half as bad as what I thought it would and is that a shower curtain I saw in the picture???  LOL!  Oh well, no turning back now, I go in 2 days and have to say I am quite looking forward to it !!!

OK! So I am back from my 2 weeks in Lagana after preparing myself for our stay at the Elite and convincing myself it would be ok here...    How wrong was I!!  The Elite was hell on Earth!  Every bad review was spot on, we had no toilet seat, mould everywhere, no plug sockets (all cracked and burnt), no lights, the only cutlery was a rusty knife and bent tin opener - no sink just a bowl in the shower to wash up with!! The shower was covered in mould and hair and the walls were black and had holes in.There was a dog tied up to a tree outside and was clearly losing its mind - I would have rather stayed on the beach!!  It was so bad that we refused to unpack - I went searching for the rep and bumped straight into him coming to see another family who had also complained.  In fairness to Thomas Cook we were all moved within 3 hours to the Aphrodite Studios which was exactly what we wanted, basic, clean and safe and we had the best 2 weeks ever. (I would highly reccomend this place if u are going to Lagana!)
All I would say is that if you really dont care where u are going to stay and then you wont mind it here as its a complete skanky doss house!!  We are not fussy one bit and have done 'basic' many a times in Greece but this took the p***.  I know its cheap but you still expect to have fixtures and fittings and plug sockets that wont electricute you!! You can defo get a decent studio for the same price as this place out there.....
I was told that there was a meeting after we were moved (and about 3 other groups in the 2 weeks we were there) and that Manos are removing this from their next brouchure, good job too!!
