A travel agent referred us to this "wonderful" place, saying that it was a "solid five". Later I learned that Mitsis offers good commissions to such travel agents, which is why they "highly recommend" you to go there. The first unpleasant surprise happened immediately upon check-in - local administrators began to sell bungalows away from the beach, although we had paid for the most expensive room with sea view. They explained simply - there are no numbers)) And selling numbers means they have it, so it turns out? ) Also, the Mitsisites began to repeat to us that we did not have a sea view in the ticket, and therefore we are settled only in (. . . a far place from the beach - on the hills . . ) The situation escalated, and after a conversation in raised tones, we managed to settle somewhere “in the middle”... although it was paid differently ! ! The next day, approaching the reception, I observed a similar situation when a woman and her family did not want to give Sea View, although she directly showed her correspondence with Mitsis, in which the number with Sea View was confirmed !! ! In general, the good old Egyptian-Turkish trick... Separate attention about the attitude towards russo turisto - to be honest, I did not expect such negligence in Greece, which is traditionally positive towards Russian speakers. Including when checking in the best rooms - for the Germans, the British - I watched many of them just hanging out on the first line. . (At the same time, I’m sure that our compatriots sell vouchers much more expensive. . And for what ? ? Why did I pay and I can’t even check in normally?... By the way, Mitsis is a Turkish hotel - there are many Turks, and in general, rest in this hotel is no different from a trip to Turkey. . The second disappointment was the beach - dirty, with algae floating and wallowing here and there. . a lot of people - do not push through. . sheer misery. . while positioned as 5 stars! ! Well, I’m silent about drinks, food, etc. , everything is like in Turkey. . alcohol, fusel. . There are few seafood dishes, the fish was cooked not tasty, the only thing that could be eaten was pasta. . I was also struck by the fact that they took a deposit of 20 euros from me for each beach towel (it was returned only upon departure)... I have never encountered this at all ! ! Wi-fi is also paid, it catches only in the lobby, and even slow. . There is a huge shortage of sunbeds, again due to the unrealistic number of people! Thirdly, these are huge crowds of people, for example, the line to the dining room descended from the second floor to the first. . So many foreigners stood and took pictures, but this farce was filmed on video as exotic !! )) As a result, there is zero attention to tourists, the waiter waits a long time, the dishes are washed badly (he personally changed 3 times when they brought me dirty mugs !! ) Summing up: Mitsis cuts the loot, clogging the hotel with people, as a result there is simply no service! Separately, I remember the attitude towards the Russians who bring money here. The conclusion I made for myself is to go only to Greek hotels and not be led by the “recommendations” of travel agents! In general, Mitsis is not worth this money. . . ! I am glad that I spent the first part of my vacation in Akrotiri on the other coast. . called felt the difference! A good hotel, cozy - located in a picturesque place, there were many cafes, municipal beaches nearby. . good service, although slow in Greek. . At least in this place it was possible to rest and relax and it was not overloaded like a barrel of herring. .
