“You buy cheap, you get cheap!”

We were three friends travelling together so booked a family room. Three single beds (quite firm, only one pillow each) a dressing table, wardrobe, two stools and a fridge.

We were three friends travelling together so booked a family room. Three single beds (quite firm, only one pillow each) a dressing table, wardrobe, two stools and a fridge. Bathroom with handheld shower and no curtain (be sure to remove the toilet paper before showering!). No cooking facilities as expected, but a kettle would have been nice. The TV, air con and safe did not work. This is a block of about 6 rooms on two storeys, with steepish steps down to the ground floor, did not see the other rooms so cannot really comment on those, but it looked like one had a balcony and another 2 opened into the "garden". Garden was a small paved area with in-built stone seating. No garden furniture or adornments to speak of, but did catch the sun and as long as the people whose rooms opened on to it were friendly, was a pleasant place to sit and chill before going out. We were dropped off by pre-booked shuttle from the airport, it is a very short journey, so maybe a taxi would have been cheaper? There is no reception and it is not signposted, after walking around aimlessly and getting very hot, we asked in the shop where we were dropped off, and the lovely people there (who were very helpful throughout our stay, despite having nothing to do with the accommodation) phoned the owner, who arrived with the key. That was the first and last time we saw anyone connected with the property! (Although, I believe, the agency that deals with the accommodation has an office in the town square). There was no maid service for the first three days, but after that (perhaps they finally remembered we were there!) someone came in each day to make the beds, change the towels (two each, one big one small) and remove the rubbish. There is a scooter hire place next to the apartment block and at 9 am on the dot every morning the tooting of horns, revving of engines and the sound of a power hose awoke us, and this continued to about 7pm. The hill from the town (about 10 mins walk) is also a killer, there is no pavement to speak of and everyone drives like maniacs!

“Basic pension - 10 mins walk to town”

We recently stayed at Pension Vrissi as we were looking for reasonable cost accommodation near Mykonnos town. Although we booked a double room for 2 people we were given a studio for 4 people (all single beds). The studio was not well equipped and only had a stovetop (with not so clean pots) and a … Plus

We recently stayed at Pension Vrissi as we were looking for reasonable cost accommodation near Mykonnos town. Although we booked a double room for 2 people we were given a studio for 4 people (all single beds). The studio was not well equipped and only had a stovetop (with not so clean pots) and a fridge - so we would have preferred a double room. The pension appears to be run by a tourist agency and there is no one on sit to assist with any queries about the area ( we were given a map and a business's card of a travel agent when we arrived). We were given a free transfer from the new port which we were grateful for as we wouldn't have found it on our own.
