Hovolo Hotel Apartments

Unfortunately, my experience was extremely negative. The photos published on the site do not correspond to reality: the property appears much older and more neglected than what is shown online and, above all, the room we were assigned was dirty. The bathroom was in terrible condition, very old and unhygienic. The shower was covered by a plastic curtain completely covered in mold and even the area behind the sink showed dirt and mold, with a persistent bad smell. We also found the bed with dirty and even torn sheets. The property was full of insects and we also encountered the presence of numerous wasps, with related nests. Breakfast was also a big disappointment: some food items did not seem to be fresh and, after having breakfast, we felt sick. Overall, the hygienic and sanitary conditions of the property are, in my opinion, absolutely inadequate for an accommodation facility that should welcome guests. A situation that leaves much to be desired and that, considering the low level of hygiene, can also raise concerns from a health perspective. Making the experience even worse was the behavior of the staff, whom we found unpleasant, unhelpful, and not at all friendly in handling the needs and reports of the guests. An absolutely negative experience and a property that I do not feel I can recommend.

Pessimo “hotel” se così si può definire. Stanze obsolete, pulizia pessima, lenzuola del letto sporche, bagno in condizioni disastrose. Una miriade di vespe in giro per la struttura. Colazione scarsa e con prodotti di dubbia qualità. Personale assolutamente non all’altezza. Assolutamente da evitare. Se potessi mettere zero stelle lo farei. Cercate altro, costo molto elevato per un posto a dir poco pessimo. Bocciatissimo! If I could give this place zero stars, I would. Calling it a hotel is already being generous. The rooms are extremely outdated, filthy, and very poorly maintained. The bed sheets were dirty when we arrived, and the bathroom was in absolutely disgusting condition. The entire property is swarming with wasps, making it unpleasant and even unsafe to spend time outside. Breakfast was very poor, with a limited selection of low-quality food. The staff were unprofessional, unhelpful, and completely unable to deal with the serious issues we reported. This was by far one of the worst accommodation experiences we have ever had. The price is outrageously high considering the terrible conditions offered. Save your money and stay somewhere else—there are far better options available. Absolutely avoid this place.

Terrible experience. We booked and paid for a room with a private balcony and sea view, and at first, we were assigned a former sea view room, due to a building under construction. We had them move us. The hotel, if it can be called that, has no elevator, only extremely steep external stairs. There is a freight elevator, all rusted and non-functional. This circumstance was concealed at the time of booking, deceiving those who believe they have easy access to the reserved room. Unfortunately, it was not the only surprise. Very poor cleaning, almost none. Bathroom with a shower tending towards training. No intention to resolve the problem, to the point that we found, from the very beginning of our stay, a nice bucket with a rag for cleaning. Absurd, given the cost of the room. Uncomfortable bed, little critters everywhere in the room, but especially in the bathroom.... However, Skopelos is so fantastic that we had a great time..... despite the hovolo hotel.
