Mayflower Peros Studios — Hotel in Municipality of Kos

Unfriendly staff and basic/run-down accommodation.

The location is far from the main resort in a run-down part of Kefalos. The complex is cheap in terms of cost (you get what you pay for), but staff very rude and have a clear strategy to encourage you to buy drinks from the pool bar despite being a self catering accommodation. I was aggressively told “how I am supposed to make a living?” one morning when borrowing a book from the bar area with my morning coffee from the room despite immediately planning to go back to our accommodation. It was awful and other guests shocked to see the way I was spoken to. This was followed up with a completely different excuse the next day about a local tax officials issuing a fine for €1000 for drinking a small bottle of water at the poolside. I was quite upset at both incidents and followed up with Jet2 as operator.

It is clear to me this is a substandard hotel and owners/staff unwelcoming, especially to anyone not using the additional facilities. The Fourtounis or Katherina are better alternatives at comparable price nearby and worth looking at instead. On other points- I) The air conditioning unit is broken in our room and believe it has been switched off to save owners money. A necessity in the heat and made the room unbearably hot. When asked it could be “fixed”/switched on for a fee. II) The cooking hob and kitchen generally is incredibly basic and frankly not worth bothering with.

In sum, I recommended looking elsewhere. Avoid this hotel for various reasons and better comparable...

Arrived at Mayflower from Leros ferry at aprox 5.30pm Sunday 8th. No welcome as such, no docs checked, just told key was in door of room No.3. Room was pretty much exactly as we left it 9 years earlier! e.g. no upgrade to decor, same old short shower curtain that floods bathroom. No dessert spoons or forks in kitchen! We pushed the separate beds together and every other day they were moved back?! Toilet rolls ran out and we had to buy our own. When my wife pulled the curtain back the whole rail was not fastened on one side, so came down.||Weve been visiting Greece for over 40 years and much of the accommodation used to be very basic but times change and much that was basic decades ago has been brought upto better standards but sad to say Mayflower seemed as though the owner just wanted to eke out his money without improving the place. As I said previously, nobody spoke on arrival but the second day whilst napping early eveing before dining out, the owners son knocked on the door asking for the 'room tax'. The bar was pleasant but each evening on returning to it for late drinks the owners son & girlfriend had a local tv soap on so no joy there either. The location was as described, good and the pool was inviting just overall unchanged in nearly 10 years.||It wasnt the worst place Ive stayed but definately needed modernising & a little care & attention with just a thought by the owners as to what little things make a holiday pleasant.||We will not...

From the minute we arrived we were greeted by the owners daughter who showed us up to our room (number 8). For what we wanted and the length of time we spent in the room it was perfect. If I could fault one thing it would be the shower, if you are a larger person there’s not much room for manoeuvre as it’s a really small tray and water goes everywhere but that’s my only gripe. Room cleaned and bin emptied every other day. We didn’t need the aircon as the breeze with the kitchen window open was enough. Absolutely everyone who we met were repeat customers which was a good sign, everyone really friendly, no sunbed wars either. Dimitri and his family were lovely, food was tasty and plentiful, we enjoyed coming back in the evening and watching the football with his son. Supermarket next door which we used and supported daily. Beach and restaurants a 5 min walk tops, Captain John’s on the front owned by the same family and is lovely. The Greeks need our business and are so welcome and friendly. Without a shadow of a doubt we will be back at...
