Reviews of Angelicas Backpackers Hostel

19 October 2011

Liked: Low price, nice German hosts.

Disliked: An extra toilet roll was on extra cost. Air conditioning costs 5EUR and inside the hosted it was cold. Hot water was with schedule, only morning or evening and the duration of hot running water was not enough for two persons to take a shower.

Liked: The people were very friendly despite the language barriers, it was well kept and the service went beyond what you would expect of a hostel.

Disliked: Not much, was maybe a bit far of a walk from Sidari if you forgot to bring something with you then you had to trudge back for 15 minutes to get it.

Liked: Staff very friendly, interested and helpfull. are willing to drive you to the busstop or to the supermarket.

Disliked: The location. In walking distance from the beach, but the town is a little far away. If you are young it is no problem however.

16 July 2011 Richard would recommend this property

Liked: The owners were very welcoming and made me feel at home. It was very laid back and they didn't even charge me for washing my clothes. It was exceptionally clean and all the basics necessary to cook a meal and a fridge to keep the cold stuff in.

Disliked: They didn't have internet, so had to use an internet cafe down the road, but that was only a minor thing and didn't affect my stay. Also, there was no mosquito net and I had a difficult first night with getting rid of them but however, when I addressed the problem, they straight away provided me with both insect repellent and something to plug into the wall which puts them to sleep so really impressed.

30 April 2011 Danielle would recommend this property

Liked: we stayed during the offseason so my group was literally the only people there! however, it was great. it was close to the beach, but a 15 minute walk to civilization and about a 30 minute walk into sidari.

Disliked: i didn't like that it was so far away from corfu.

05 April 2011 Paul would recommend this property

Liked: Its location, close enough to the center to go the shop/club/beach whenever you want but just 5 - 10 mins walk so when I was tired It was quiet and no disturbance's. The view from our balcony was of the hills and olive groves, from the corridor theres a nice view to sea. The price's, for example in the town laundarette it costs something like 12 euro for laundry, here its was 2 or 3 euro. You need to pay a little extra to have air conditioning turned on but you have a big window/door you can just open for air to blow in from the balcony. we booked just 2 nights but stayed 5 or 6.

Disliked: Maybe a little to quiet for some people but this was in the out of season.

19 August 2010 Andrey would recommend this property

Liked: there's a friendly, family atmosphere, the picturesque views from the windows, the place is not overcrowded like many others in the center of Sidary or very close to the beach. Our 1-year old baby was very happy :)

20 July 2008 Michael Wolthers would recommend this property

Liked: Extremely helpful and friendly elderly german woman hosting our stay. Appartment is easily on par with a 3 star hotel in terms of space, size of beds and the fact that all rooms have a balcony and a tv. Offered to wash our clothes for us and didnt charge us anything for it.

14 April 2008 Erin would recommend this property

Liked: The best hospitality I had found in my travels by far!!! And you could not beat the price. A bit of a trek from Corfu Town but well worth it. A very homey atmosphere, the owner was amazing and even cooked for us! We enjoyed it so much we even extended our stay an extra night. Would highly recommend this place to anyone planning on going to Corfu, it is a must stay.

Liked: Literally your home away from home. This sweet and lovely couple practically take you into your home and make sure you have everything you need for a comfortable stay. They will feed you if you wish and will even give you a ride to the bus station at the crack of dawn! I think that the price is ridiculously cheap and I paid more than necessary because their hospitality was priceless. The rooms/showers/beds are very clean and virtually spotless. You're close to town and the beach. You won't want to stay in any other hostel ever again and saying good-bye was really hard!

14 August 2007 Bert would recommend this property

Liked: if you look for a quiet hostel just in the neighbourhood of the swinging city Sidari, it is a very nice place to stay, especially when you go by car, you can walk to the beach, just 8 minutes away. Very very nice landlady. Superclean.

Disliked: Bert left no negative feedback.

25 July 2007 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: This place really shouldn't call itself a hostel - it's more of a hotel. The double rooms are like small, private apartments complete with kitchen, bathroom, dining area and a balcony with a breakfast table. The owners of the hostel are incredibly friendly and helpful - they offered to give us a ride when we were leaving. The only negative thing about the place is that it's a bit of a walk (around 1 km) to town, which would be fine if the road was safer - there isn't a sidewalk and cars and busses speed by at alarming rates. The best way is to take the road by the beach, which we discovered a bit too late into our stay. But this is an ideal place to stay if you're on a budget. Much calmer than being in the center of Sidari which is a clubbing extravaganza that I would guess makes it hard to sleep.
