Right might as well get this done , its not going to be like Sandy's War and Peace :grin: but should give the gist of teh apts


The Flora apts are above the old town in PDC on Avdn Reina Sofia , its a five minute downhill walk to the harbour

On arrival we were met by Juan teh receptionist , thisbloke was slightly dippy but very frindly , he gave us the keys for room 375 , which was across the road , which we got to by the underpass , connecting the two parts of the complex , well we got there opened the door to be comfronted by someone else cases ??? so went back to the reception and explained what had happed , Juan was very apologetic and gave us the key for 344 , we found this room wasnt inpressed with it due to a tree growing in the patio but need kip so decided to speak to reception the Friday morning ,

This i did and for a charge of 30€ moved to 370 , which was a amazing room ,


Anyway teh apts have 2 pools one of either side of the road , the larger on on the other side to us was very busy most days , and very cramped , there seemed to be not enough sunbeds and most of tehm were "towelled" very early in the morning , on our side there was a smaller pool but was very quiet and peaceful

There was a restaraunt and bar by the pool , the food was ok breakfast was 3.50€ and was anything you could think off, lunch and tea could be had but we didnt bother but some people said it was quiet good, there was aqlso a AI option of 30€ per day and a lot were taking advantage of that for 1 week of a 2 week hol

Ther was a disco/nightclub which bizzarely the AI lot could not get drinks from , that caused eruptions for a few and choice words were said , the nightly entertainmant was here and i can only describe it as CRAP, we saw a samke show , a bloke sticking needles in his throat and the worst of all a GREASE show , which as the entertainers were dutch , i can only assume Grease the film was never shown in Holland it was that bad , the only reason most people were there was they were AI and even thou they couldnt get drinks in that bar they just went over to the pool bar

There was a supermarket very very well stocked and some things were cheaper than the main one down the road , and the staff were very plesant and always smiling

also around was a souvenir shop which i saw open once and a hairdresser

Internet access was in teh main reception 4 pcs were there and it was 1€ for 10 mins

All the reception staff were brilliant especially Alfonso and Maria and after the balls up on the first night we asked about a late check out which they charge 30€ for and theygave it to us Gratis for there mistake

Very nivce complex would definately go again ,
