Title: Helios appartments
Post by: cornucopia on July 07, 2009, 10:51:39 AM

Anybody know anything about the Helios appartments - they seem to be somewhere to the back of Ostraco's and look to be pretty good value. I was planning on just turning up as usual and finding somewhere on the day but I'm tempted to try and book up if there's any decent feedback.

I was there 2weeks ago  , the best and biggest room I had so far " sat tv, internet, ac, cooking and a place to sit and a real table "
The price was very good. And if there's anything you want the owners are always in the supermarket below the appartment.

I am almost sure that these apartments are above the Co-op supermarket on the way to Dora's.

If you know a bit of Greek, it's easy to confuse north and south, since south is Νοτια (Notia). It's a bit like Ναι meaning Yes.

That is correct.

I noticed that - I was a bit worried that if they think they're on the north coast I'd turn up to find the room had sat-nav and free hair conditioner!

But if Steven reckons they're good I may give them a go.
