I actually have fond memories of my stay here.
Yes the apartments are extremely basic.
Yes not overly clean (the old lady did try hard though)
Yes bar staff are rarely seen.
We stayed on the "top half" of the apartments where the pool is, almost felt like we had the place to oursleves, especially 4-6pm when the families where going out for tea. Nice to sit and chillby the pool. Good view.
There was a flea infestation when we where there, although we could laugh about it I did feel sorry for some of the families and small kids.
Our rep was atrocious.
Good base for exploring Crete with a hire car. Would prefer to go back here than the 20's something resorts like Malia.

Our holiday at Creta Star Appartments was booked as two couples on a bed and breakfast basis. Creta Star appartments is a self catering only and incorrectly booked through Manos.
The appartments are basic with the bare essentials required for self catering. The appartment was cleaned daily although the cleanliness in Crete is not the same as UK.The complex is old and access is by steps to the appartments both north and south of a busy road.
The main appartment area has a swimming pool which is small and quite dangerous for small children (it was not kept very clean). There is a reception which we found only when leaving to move into different accommodation and this is manned by a lady that also runs the pool bar. Her english is not very fluent and if you have any problems before 1130 am there is not any one to help.
The appartments are not well maintained our door handle fell off as did our friends and another family who was staying there. These were not repaired whilst we stayed there. The steps at the main entrance to the complex take you straight onto the road on a blind bend this also very dangerous.
On the whole I would not recomend these appartments to anyone especially a family with young children.
Elounda is 6kms over a very steep hill and the centre of Aghios Nikolaos is 3 kms away.
I am surprized that Manos have this in their brochure it does them no favours everybody that arrived whist we were there complained to the rep who seemed pretty inepted at dealing with any of the problems.

Self Catering - fridge and 2 rings.
Location - terrible 1hour walk to main resort - no mention this in brochure.
Also our room was at the bottom of 100 steps overlooking a dried up river bed - nice. On the last day we were told we could use the guest room. Well I have never seen anything so disgusting in my life I would imagine that all animals live better than this.
Staff - only saw 1 girl who worked at the bar and a 90 year old lady that did her best with cleaning.
