"Arrived at the Convivial on 8/29/2024. A sign said to call a cell phone, no one around. Not a good start for a place named "convivial". Someone came down and showed us a room with stained carpets, stained curtains, stained towels, dark bathroom that wasn't clean. Carpeted stairs had stains. The carpets everywhere looked worn and not vacuumed. The doors to the rooms were plain wooden doors you might have in your house. One of them had a crack in it that you could see light come through. Not secure at all. The lobby was dark and the couch had a dark stain, as if someone had wiped greasy hands on it. No "luxury" here. There is a courtyard with a small pool that had not been cleaned for a long time. The walls below water were dirty. There were debris floating on the water and there was no filtration pump going. There were droppings on the pavement and the few tables/chairs were covered with dust. Not "spa" like either. The receptionist showed us three rooms and they were all in similar conditions. We spoke with the owner and they refused to refund our money. They offered to clean the room. I was disgusted and wouldn't sleep there even at no charge. I had to find another place to stay. I complained to Expedia. They tried to get in touch with the owner. The owner didn't answer the calls, Expedia did not approve a refund. This is the cancellation policy of 24 hours prior, but it seems there is no protection against false advertising. This place has been neglected for some time."

"The place is brand new. Very well maintained. Great service. Highly friendly staff. Tasty breakfast. Good dining options. Amazing pool. There are not too many attractions close by. Perfect place just to relax or to spend a day in between Patras and Athens or south Peloponnese. Highly recommended!"

"Great stay"

"Our room was very nice with two bathrooms and nice balcony. The door closing was very loud."

"Pros: An excellent hotel at a gorgeous beach by the pine forest. Unlimited sea view from the beautiful stylish big rooms. Private beach with free premium sunbeds. Fine dining restaurant. Cons: Restaurant service stuff was inexperienced. Music playing from 10am till after midnight is loud passes in the main building front rooms. The Sikelianios villa restaurant was closed (2024), villa was unaccessible. Overall, highly recommended. "

"Our two families of 4 had a fantastic stay at this property. The location was wonderfully unique in the authetically greek couuntyside with lots to do nearby for everyone. Although it was hot summer weather, we found reprieve from the weather up in the mountains, on the shaded deck of the house, swimming in the Gulf of Corinth and, of course, the pool! Owner and host were great, quick to respond and gave us usefull info about the area."

"The hotel is just adequate, the facility is very basic, the bathroom is tiny and flimsy. Way overpriced!"

"Perfect little apartment! Gorgeous views, welcoming staff, and close to everything while still quiet. Perfect!"

"We've stayed in 10 Stayz properties over 5 weeks in Europe, and this was simply the property that excelled. Besides tea, coffee, milk, etc (some properties had just coffee - no milk or sugar..), this wonderful place provided eggs, ham cheese, wine, eggs, fresh oranges, beer, wine, and list goes on.... And its was priced no more that the other properties.......so thoughtful in everything We loved it, and I offer the same at my property in Australia. Thank you 😃"
