Reviews for Elpis Studio Apartments
Review 1:no staff upon arrival and details of room in window of office so a little DIY and location of the property is on the newer side of the village so a little walk around the harbour to the older and more established tavernas
Review 2:Convenient stopping point for Heraklion airport the next day. Room perfectly adequate and helpful space to park at the rear of the building. Nice pool
Review 3:Owners very helpful to provide information about place to visit, very friendly. You can rent a car on the place. Very convenient location if you have a car.
Review 4:there is not very much privacy as the balconies are close together. The wifi did not work very well. Shower is very small and after 4 people all is wet
Review 5:the rooms were quite big and clean
Review 6:Everything was good regards Elpis Apts. Bali very scenic but would not be a good choice for anyone with limited mobility.
Review 7:spotlessly clean, maid service every day and towel and bedding changed 3 times in a week, very friendly staff . Lovely view from room and peaceful location in October. Would recommend. Good value for money. Would go back..
Review 8:the pillows were neck breaking definately they need to be changed!
Review 9:people where very friendly and helpful.the room was clean and quite big.the kitchen facilities a bit run down but still good.a nice big balcony and the pool area was ok.
Review 10:We had booked a studio and a 2-bedroom apartment. When we got to the hotel, they had 2 studios waiting for us. They offered to give us breakfast or reimbursement as compensation but not better rooms. After complaining we got a third room at the neighbouring hotel. One of the studios (next to the pool) had a bad smell, strongest in the kitchenette area. Service at the pool bar was slow. At checkout we were at first given the wrong price and after we showed our booking confirmation we were scolded for making changes to the booking! The last changes were made at least a month prior to our stay.
Review 11:The location was ok, 2 supermarkets nearby, walking distance to the main beaches. The view of the mountains was nice (don't expect to have a sea view, only a few rooms will have that)
Review 12:It us hard to call Music the "noise" that is played around the pool
Review 13:We had a car so the location was perfect. The staff is nice (when you meet them), the rooms were clean, the pool is OK though the music that was played was terrible
Review 14:Bali is very spread out and these appartments seemed some of the furthest from the beach, also only close to one small supermarket and a few restaurants/bars so you had to walk for a bit to get more choice.
Review 15:Nice quiet location, good size room, lovely pool area, very friendly staff.
Review 16:This two bed apartment has one bedroom with two hard beds. The other bedroom is the kitchen dining area which has a very poorly equipped kitchen, a table and three chairs, an ancient tiny wall mounted TV and two single uncomfortable beds. The air conditioner unit blows hot air onto the balcony which limited our use of the balcony.
Review 17:The balcony had a good view. The apartment was quickly cleaned every day.
Review 18:The Elpis studios are a great place to stay. The staff are very friendly and the apartments are kept in very good condition and rooms are cleaned on a daily basis.

Review 49:1. Beds were not comfortable, have something like oilcloth, we found ourselves sweaty when woke up 2. There were problems with hot water and water pressure 3. Small shower cabine, but it was not so important
Review 50:1. Location is good - 3 minutes to one of the beach (although I preferred another one), good for people with children like us. Many mini markets and souvenirs in 3 minutes walk 2. VERY nice staff - barman Vaya and cleaning women Andygony, they always were funny, friendly and ready to help 3. Rooms are good, spacious and have everything, even small bucket for coffee and juicer for oranges 4. Cleaning every day, changing linen and towels every 3 days 4. Good view to mountains and "country side" around, pleasure to stay at the balcony for a long time 5. Nice territory with pool 6. Dimitris has car rental(with little discount for hotel customers) and offers transfer cheaper than taxi Bali is a nice place to stay, 4 beautifull bays with nice beaches and many tavernas. For people with children there are may be to much mountains, sometimes it was hard to bring a stroller through mountains and stairs. Very many Russians :-)
Review 51:1. Beds are squeaky, its ribs are not fixed so the mattress always falls down throught them 2. Bathroom is very small, shower is 60 cm x 60 cm, lavatory pan is very close to the shower so when you take shower all the room and everything in it becomes wet. Bad smell always goes out of the water discharge whole There is no hair fan and no electric socket in the bathroom It would be very good to fix mosquito screen in the bathroom window. 3.Air condition is fixed on the wall very close to beds and blows directly to the beds. It is very dangerous to your health. 4. Towels looked very washed off and not very attractive to the end of tourist season
Review 52:1.Location: right place (not very high in the mountain and close to the sea) and right position to the sun (windows face north) 2.Hotel is kept clean 3.You have practically everything to live comfortably in appartment
Review 53:Very welcoming hosts Dimitris and Poppy, always ready to help! Magnificient view on sea and mountains from large balconies on 2nd floor. Near the beach. No room faces the road so it is quiet. Rent cars with discounts. A best apartments in Bali! :)
Review 54:Nothing
Review 55:The Elpis hotel was a very good place to stay. The stuff was very friendly. The room was hudge, very clean and a great value for money. I didn't enjoy Bali as was too touristy and crowded, however, the hotel was really good.
Review 56:The one bedroom appartment was very spacious and cleaned every day to a high standard. The staff were friendly. The swimming pool and bar area were well set out and clean. There were always loungers and parasols. I recommend this hotel unreservedly.
Review 57:Everything was great!
Review 58:Everything was great here, location, pool, beds were relatively comfortable by Greek standards, the price was a very good value. The location is directly next to a mini market and close enough to the beach. The restaurant up on the hill over looking the beach is th best!
Review 59:The only thing I had to ask for was clen towels, but was not a problem as once asked they delivered them.
Review 60:We had a one bedroom apartment which was great. A large shaded balcony, which you could see the sea from and very comfortable. The kitcen area was big enough for us to make breakfast and drinks. I would recommend these apartments as they are close to beach, shops and restaurants. Great holiday
Review 61:We have stayed at Elpis, Bali on several occasions over the past 6 years and enjoyed every visit. It's located just a few minutes walk from Varkotopos beach, has five tavernas and two mini-markets almost 'on the doorstep'. Other parts of the village are easily reached within a few minutes walking. There is a small pool, pool-bar and sunbathing area at the back of the property. The Elpis car rental service (which we have never used) is reputed to be one of the best for value in the village. Dimitris and Poppy are first class hosts and do everything they can to make a stay at the Elpis comfortable and enjoyable.
Review 62:All the many stairs we did not like.And the beds were no good.Outside the hotel was not very clean!Especially on the parking place , which was very dirty.The door to the bathroom could not close.
Review 63:It was a cheap stay and that was the most important.
Review 64:WiFi was mostly not accessible at all or entirely not working while'accessible'.... Car parking is very small and it is not easy to getto the hotel with your luggage (no suitable footpath for bags..). Nolift - difficult to carry suitcases upstairs - not comfortable esp.For old people.
Review 65:The room was spacious and clean, so was the balcony with a good view.Overall, a nice, quiet and well equipped place to stay for a couple ofnights. A nice, though small pool.
Review 66:Nothing is bad om Elpis Apartments
Review 67:I just stayed 1 week at Elpis Apartments and I already miss it. It is a fantastic place. Poppy and Dimitris make you feel very much welcome and they helped me very much. Also Nikos make me feel that I was welcome at the pool. The Elpis Apartments are very good. I have a very nice and big room, and a nice balcony with a fantastic view on the mountains.And they come and clean the room every day. It is close to the beach and the supermarket and still you are close to the nature, which was important for me, because I want a peacefull place to relax. And still it is not far to walk to the little harbour with many restaurants. Bali is a beautiful place and I cant wait to come back. Hanne from Denmark
Review 68:Very nice location, quiet and very clean. Nice flowers sorrounding the block, Mr. Dimitris and Mrs Popi are very good people. Always ready to service us, very cheap car rental from Elpis. Pool Bar also very good, and Mr. Nikos at the Pool Bar very pleasant person.
Review 69:If it can be called "minus", the lack of a microwave oven. Если это можно назвать "минусом", то отсутствие микроволновки.
Review 70:Very friendly welcome. We were met at the airport. Willingness to solve all our problems. Very nice hosts. Bartenders Mike and Nikos were friends to us and our children! Awesome people! Beautiful grounds. Near to the beach. Clean rooms, large balcony, Wi-Fi in the room, good plumbing. Car Rental, great selection and good prices. Очень дружественный прием. Нас встретили в аэропорту. Готовность решать все наши проблемы. Очень хорошие хозяева. Бармены Майк и Никос стали друзьями нам и нашим детям! Потрясающие люди! Красивая территория. Близко к пляжу. Чистые комнаты, большой балкон, Wi-Fi в номере, хорошая сантехника. Прокат автомобилей, большой выбор и хорошие цены.
