Little prince bad review ????

<< < (2/4) > >>

Jimbo:
Okay - found it. I've asked them to let me know which room they were in case there is an issue, because we're back in a couple of weeks and I can point it out.

All I can say is that all the people whom I have recommended on TripAdvisor have had a great time and are going back. Mind you, there are those who are killing their children by spraying every surface with anti-bacterial destroy-your-immune system stuff.

I can only imagine what they'd have said 30 years ago! 

Sandra W:
Read someone's review of Kapetanios on Trip Advisor. They slagged off food in general as far as San Stef goes. They did praise Town Pizza and the "two kebab houses." Great taste in food?  They were particularly vitriolic in their criticism of the Little Prince. They allege they saw "tinned chicken" being cooked. We've sat at most tables in LP and never been able to see what the kitchen staff are doing.

I am tempted to add to their review and suggest they visit the Anti-Food.. Sorry that's unfair - Somewhere with a McDonalds would be a sure thing for them.  I would like to point out that I do eat at Little Prince a lot but have absolutely no agenda in making this post as I do think that food wise there are arguably better meals to be had in the village but I find the Little Prince the most consistent. There is though no better atmosphere generated in any other taverna.

I do not believe more than half what is posted on Trip Advisor, there are always complaints about it.

I have to say that the only places I have ever had a less than satisfactory meal was at the Little Prince and at two star. I did not eat at Little Prince all this summer (although I was in SS for five weeks) because last year I had two fairly negative experiences there. Maybe it was because I was alone but I felt that I was a bit of a nuisance and as I obviously wasn't going to be spending a lot of cash on my own I felt that both the service and the food were just about ok.
I have spoken to lots of people who love it and think that the rooms are brilliant. So as tony often says it's horses for courses really! You can only speak as you find!

Jimbo:
A lot depends on what you like and don't like. We down-rated Mythica and Ozzy Oils. Each place probably has its highs and lows. It's extremely rare to get a night when Little Prince isn't full, so they must be getting something right! Last October Lp was the only place that was full.

I haven't had reply from the people who wrote the review. What particularly annoyed/amused me was complaining about grease on the top of the cooker hood. You'd have to climb on a chair to inspect it! That seems to me to be somewhat anal behaviour. Anyway - they won't be going back, so that stops them clogging up rooms for the rest of us.

It's hard to imagine what Trip Advisor would have been like thirty years ago. Lukewarm food - souvlaki you could only eat with a hammer and chisel - no hot water - donkeys braying outside the window at 5am - curiously large menus with only four things pencilled in as available. As for cooker hoods - forget it.
