Good Points
None what-so-ever! Lagana itself is OK, but the Apollo Apartments were shocking and awful.

Bad Points
My fingers would bleed if I was going to type every bad point... too many to mention.

General Comments
We stayed at the Apollo Apartments in Zakynthos in September 2005. I would not recommend these to anyone. The rooms are a disgrace! On arrival they were dirty, and the walls full of squashed mosquitoes, and the screen on the balcony was torn so this was no use at all.

To the back of the apartment were chicken/Hen pens directly outside the back of your room, and the smell was terrible, not to mention the noise! They would wake you at an early hour. If it wasn't the chickens it was the hotels owners, as they could be heard arguing most mornings around the pool area!

While the pool area was mainly clean, the steps into the pool were unsafe, and they were not attached to the poolside. The cover for the pool drainage was often left open and unattended.

The owners did not speak a word of English, making things very difficult. The rep on site was not helpful, as she did not have time for you.

On a couple of occasions, around 11pm at night, you could hear gun shots being fired close to the hotel, and this would last for a few hours.

We only had a maid service once during the whole holiday.
