This hotel is poor even by Greek standards. Our main criticisms are:1. The hotel is situated about 20m up a side road off the main road. All pre-booked trips mean you have to wait at the bus-stop on the main road in the blazing sun with no seat or shade for buses that are invariably late when there is a large turning area at the hotel front, where we could wait in the hotel lobby for the bus.2. When we were there, whilst the woman who tended the poolside bar during the day was fine, the man who tended it at night seemed to be an alcoholic, and it seemed his main purpose in life was to turn all his customers into alcoholics too.3. Whilst the breakfasts were adequate we were glad that ours was only a B&B stay.4. The woman who was mainly on reception we found to be good.5. The rooms were not good (in 2012). This was not the fault of the cleaners, but more the fault of the rooms themselves, which could do with a complete revamp a lot of maintenance at the very least.6. We booked 2 trips from the hotel, at same time, but we were not told that 2 half days were at the same place.

We booked and checked in without reservation, and got a price which was quite stiff (compared to booking agencies online, but also they showed very stiff prices).The receptionist was quite nice, who was welcoming and friendly. We were given an apartment with one bedroom and a nice big bathroom with bathtub, located on the corner facing the pool. The room was very nice, clean and large, and a well equipped kitchen. Only negative was a bit easy to hear people in the hall, so the rooms arent too quiet. Also the bathrooms has a window into the hallway, so you can easily hear people doing private business.The pool and pool bar was also a nice area, with childrens part in the pool. The area itself is green and clean, and in general quite nice. The staff is friendly and smiling, and we enjoyed the stay even though it was only for one night, but decided to move to a different hotel because of the stiff prices.

The rooms and the kitchen were well equiped and definitely clean (and I should mention that the cleaning lady was very helpful and had a highly positive attitude). The blond lady at the reception was warm and welcoming (not the dark hair lady). Location is good; a market across the street, 3 tavernas on the way to the beach. The beach is near (although not the best beach in Kos). We were there with our two kids (age of 2 and 4), and they had a lot of fun. To improve: the pool water was not clear, so not inviting, yet the kids didn't bother.

14th July 2012We stayed at Alexandra Beach Hotel & Appt Psalidi not to be mixed up with Alexandra Hotel Kos town. My husband and I stayed for 2 weeks at Alexandra Beach Hotel & Appt.Positives ¿¿¿ Supermarket directly across very good prices. Very close to Marina and beach. Don¿¿¿t be put off with 5euro charge for sunbeds and parasol on Paradise beach as it includes soft drink and melon in the afternoon. There are 3 very nice taverna¿¿¿s on front to be recommended if you turn right at the end of the road Blue Ocean inparticular. Hotel very attractive from outside was exceptionally clean and staff were very helpful especially the night-porter, the barman and blond receptionist.Negatives ¿¿¿ Stayed in better 2 star accommodation would not rate as 4 stars stayed in 4star in Lampi and was far superior. Arrived early morning (2:45am) to be told our room had been cancelled and we would have to wait over 24 hours for room!! Beds are very low to ground and not comfortable. Cleaners start work at 7am so expect to be woken up early. Corridors are closed in so it is very noisy with banging doors echoing etc. Make sure you state what you require when you book as we fortunately were upgraded because of trauma when we arrived and we had a fridge and 2 rings to cook on- Not all rooms have this luxury even some upgraded rooms do not have fridge or cooking facilities. Air conditioning is an added extra at 3euros per day and it¿¿¿s temperamental. Pool was cloudy for one of the weeks and there are signs saying no diving but no one takes notice you will get wet if sunbathing around pool I advise moving sunbed onto grassed area. Breakfast very basic.

The people from the reception were very kind! Especially the woman with the blond hair! The room was good! It was nice that the hotel was near by the beach! The swimming pool and his environment were very beautiful!
