Disliked: Room comfort
Flatotel International didn't meet my expectations. While the location was good and the hotel had some basic amenities, the outdated rooms, average service, and lack of comfort made it feel more like a 2-star experience than a 3- or 4-star hotel. If you’re looking for something simple and budget-friendly, it might work, but don’t expect much luxury or attention to detail.

The property seems to have a continuing contract with schools to host school age children on their property which they should declare this fact on their advertisement . It was a nightmare , the noise , screaming children , the yelling of their teachers, and exhausting staff day and night . I would not recommend this property for anyone looking for a relaxing vacation .

We didnt had good experiance, WIFI was so poor it would only connect at some places in flat, wouldnt't connect in balcony, every morning they start some building work making so much noise. Pool was closed for couple of days, supermarket in building was closed for entire stay and games/archade room was also closed. Rooms are quite tired with bathrooms extremely in poor condition. Not sure how they are getting good ratings, perhaps from before few years. Only good thing we liked was cleaning every alternate days and location of property is good with sea views and close to bus stops. You are stuck for shopping as their supermarket is closed and opens only peak season.

Broken Bed and Toilet .
4 ladies l stayed in Flatotel We had a 2 bedroom appt. 1 bed was broken.. 1 toilet of the 2 we had was broken and leaked and we were told there was a problem with it before our stay. We were not offered another appt as the hotel was busy. So it ruined our holida. The manager said there was a problem with the toilet. We were offered a free night if we ever stayed there again.

The apartment size and location were pretty good. The main parking area is not easy to locate as it's kind of hidden and has no clear signs - you have to walk around to figure it out. The rooms are decent sized but the appliances are pretty outdated. There is also no indication that you have to insert your room key in this vague, random little box for AC/Heat units to work. The staff is helpful but they also missed that detail when we mentioned the heating wasn't working. They do have cutlery but have to get your own detergent to wash them. You also need to turn on the fridge manually and that wasn't clear either. Overall, a good experience but these small nuisances one needs to be aware of.
