I was very happy with my room - it was on the end, it was the largest one I had during my island-hopping trip and it felt quite spacious.  I had a very warm welcome from my host and, upon leaving, they waited with me until my transfer arrived.  In fact, they were fine with my staying an extra night as I was stranded on the island because no ferries were able to dock because of the wind.  I think the only down side were that 1) I couldn't figure out how to take a shower without the benefit of a shower curtain and without flooding the floor, and 2) it was a 10 minute walk to the restaurants.  But that was a small price to pay for such lovely accommodations & amazing hospitality

Amazing hospitality

Very nice and comfortable studio. We were on the top floor (room101!!) Nice outside terrace overlooking the pool. Good views over hotel opposite but not sure I would like a ground floor studio as it is adjacent to the road. It's a cul-de-sac so not much traffic. Cleaned every day by Emmanuela who was fantastic a really nice lady and very helpful. Clean towels every day and sheets changed regularly. Not luxurious but clean and good value for money. Quiet a climb from the town which could be a problem for anyone with health issues. Pool area cleaned every day and loungers available. I would certainly re visit as it's a beautiful island and nice local people. No screen or curtain in shower but we managed to not flood the bathroom. A great value for money holiday from Jet 2.

Great holiday

Recently returned from a 2 week holiday booked through Jet2. As stated in previous reviews all is not what is described on the Jet2 website.The 4 ground floor studios , which seem to be allocated to almost exclusively to Jet2 customers, are reasonably large/ spacious by Greek standards.It’s was cleaned daily and the bedding was changed 4 times during our stay .However that’s where the positives end. The  “ bathroom “ is typically Greek size wise and it would be easy to sit on the loo , wash your feet in the shower and clean your teeth in the sink all at the same if you were in a hurry and as previously stated the floor does get very wet .There is a large kitchen area but ours didn’t even have a bottle opener in the knife drawer. One of my major moans is the fact that when sitting on the patio there is no privacy from either the guests next door or from anyone walking along the road outside .In fact at times it was like sitting and eating in a car park , with fumes regularly drifting into our room as well as all over the patio. The only way to get any privacy was to sit in the room with either the curtains or shutters closed which meant no daylight or fresh air in the room. The room also had a strange layout which meant that the entry to the room was through the doors from the patio despite the fact that there was a door at the back of the room which let into a corridor which was used as a storage area. Not a major problem but it did mean it was not possible to properly close the glass patio doors when going out as there weren’t any handles on the outside.The nice sized  pool was cleaned every morning before it opened at 9am , but with only room around the pool for 10 sun beds and a few plastic chairs it got quite busy at times , especially as the pool is shared with the guests at the apartments directly across the road which had 10 or so rooms. The image on the Jet2 webpage of the pool showing a newish block at the rear is misleading as that block is not for guests and nothing  is mentioned about the pool being shared by the other apartment block . Neither is it mentioned that the Wi-Fi is also shared by the other apartments, which meant it was very difficult to get any Wi-Fi signals at busy times and it was never possible to get Wi-Fi inside the rooms . I would not usually be worried about poor Wi-Fi but our last few days were during storm Daniel and it was no fun having to stand outside on a windy / rainy patio trying to get info from Jet2 . Despite the issues with our accommodation I would have no problem with visiting Patitiri again as there were plenty of nice tavernas within a 10 minute downhill walk  and a couple of nice beaches within walking distance to the centre.

Not  as described on the Jet2 tin 

Despite asking for a balcony when booking with Jet2 over a year ago we ended up with a shared terrace facing the road with cars and bikes parked in front.  However, in some respects we were luckier than some people as ours was the larger one in the block with a bit of a sea view between the buildings opposite.  The first week our neighbours smoked and because there was no partition the smoke came into our room which was unpleasant.   The room itself was large and clean although rather tired looking.  The shower tray tended to overflow if you weren't careful and the shower itself had to be hand held as the hook was broken, although we are used to this as most of the Greek accommodation we have stayed in over the years has been prone to this.  There was only 3 plugs sockets in the room with only 1 in the kitchenette which meant that when we boiled the kettle we had to stand it on the 2 ring stove and use the stove socket. Also as the previous reviewer has said there was no TV despite Jet2 stating that there were flat screen TV's in the rooms. The pool area was very nice and the pool although small was enough to cool off in. However, what was confusing was there was no reception.  We hadn't a clue as to who we were supposed to present out passports too (which is usually a requirement) where to pay the tourist tax and were never told when we were required to vacate the room on departure day.  In the end we stayed in our studio until it was time for our pickup at 12.15pm.  The owners of the Studio's are very friendly but do not speak very good English.  You will need to seek out Vangellis  who's English is better if you have any issues. Be aware that there are no Jet2 Reps on the Island and any problems you have you will have to ring the "hot line". Finally, if you have mobility problems or not particularly fit you may be better off staying in the port area as the Elena is situated on a headland and to reach the beach at Roussom Gialos (nicer than the town beach) you have to go down (and up) about 160 steps and a steep section of road.  Then in the evening to reach the restaurants you will have to navigate another steep section of road and a series of steps in the other direction.  If we visited Patitiri again we would stay in an apartment in the port area to be closer to the restaurants and use the local bus and Acqua Travel beach transfers  to visit surrounding beaches to cut down on the amount of steps and steep slopes you have to use to get anywhere.

Shared Terrace

We visited Elena studios as part of a Jet2  
package arriving 31/8.
Despite requesting a top floor studio, and booking our holiday approx 8 months ago we were given a ground floor studio. A request to the owner on arrival  to be moved was declined as there were no other studio’s available. The Jet2 online description said we would have a flat screen tv and a “great view” however we had no tv and our view was of parked cars or motorcycles. Worst of all was that we had a shared terrace with the studio next door and there was nothing in place to divide the two spaces, thus you are thrown into the same terrace space as your neighbour, no privacy at all,  which is a hideous situation to find yourself in. To make matters worse the neighbour who we shared the terrace with tended to walk straight past our shutters to get to the pool as to get to the pool via their own gate meant squeezing between  cars and motorcycles parked on the road!
Jet2 made no mention that the terrace was shared with no privacy at all, and I believe other studios in this small apartment block might be similar. We met other people staying here,  on higher floors, who were happy with their accommodation and also another couple staying on the ground floor who had successfully got themselves moved.
So be aware, if you book this accommodation and end up on the ground floor you are unlikely to be happy. We walked out and found ourselves alternative accommodation after Jet2 failed to move us. 
A formal complaint has been raised with Jet2 as we believe they blatantly misled us with their photos of the accommodation and written description.
