Dimitra Apartments G

We booked this good value Studio apt. in this apartment complex (with pool) for 3 nights because it was close to the Gouvia Marina where we would meet the rest of our family for a 10 day yacht cruise in the Ionian Islands. We had pre booked a taxi transfer from the airport to the studio apartment. due to a late PM arrival (40euros). There was a sign at the corner General Store that led down a lane to the Dimitra Apartments S(tudio). The taxi driver found the after hours access key to the studio and the card to deposit into a slot by the inside door for the electricity. Immediately to the left was a small kitchenette with the essentials and bottled water in a mini fridge, as the tap water is non drinkable. Opposite the kitchenette was a small table for 2, and chairs. Next left along the corridor was a compact WC with sink, toilet, and a glassed in shower stall. At the end of the corridor was the bedroom. Two separate, good, firm, mattresses on one bed frame, open closet space for hanging clothes etc. The 10 ft ceiling helped create an overall larger sense of space. There was a small raised balcony, both in the front and back of this ground floor studio. Margarita, the onsite caretaker (0800-1600), was an invaluable source of help to make our stay as enjoyable as possible... guided us to a really EXCELLENT good value, restaurant for breakfast: 'Sweet & Savory' whose New York Culinary schooled, Chef Nic homemades from scratch a large variety of Greek and North American dishes and offers eco-friendly  coffees...walked us down to the main street bus stop (5 minutes) after pre purchasing bus tickets (3 euros per person, per trip) to take the #7 bus to the centre of Old Town Corfu (20-30 minutes)  a big saving over the monopoly inflated taxi fares. σε ευχαριστώ πολύ Margarita Thank you so very much,Betty and Robert

The Location was fantastic. Closer to Main Railway and the Main bus stand. lots of places to eat.

Friendly staff

Nothing

The staff and owner were lovely, the space was laid out to the best the area allowed. It was clean and bright and the amenities were good and as described. Pool area lovely and clean. Weather wasnt on our side, so no swimming in the pool. Its convenient for the buses into Corfu Town (No 7), by the Peugeot/JetOil/No 7 bus stops & large supermarket on the main road. Main road around 70 meters away, just a few mins walk. Supermarket around 150 meters from the accommodation. Across the main road is the main area of Gouvia's shops and restaurants and a very short walk to the beach.

Would have liked the other mosquito shutters to have been working, especially in the bathroom. Only one working was the kitchen. Patio missing too. For others booking, note that the bathroom is lovely however it is a little on the tight size space-wise. Restricted storage if two people were staying for a week or more. We stayed 3 nights and took clothes out of our bags.
