Location
The pool area was kept clean and tidy, the barman (James) during the day, was second to none, with advice on where to go, what to do and where to eat.
Fantastic views of the sea and hills, brilliant setting and on the whole quiet.

Hotel tip: Most rooms have pool views. Visit Taverna Odas in the old town and The House on the main strip is brilliant for any time of the day.
Our room was quite dark through in kitchen area and there was a few kirbies and some hair from the people who had been there before. The shower was a hit or miss for hot water, i think we had to shower before 7.30pm if we were heading out to have a warm one.
The main bedroom was nice enough though and a nice little balcony which overlooked the pool bar area.
Good distance from the strip as u dont get any noise (apart from the clubland style beats constantly blasting out through the day at the pool) and if you find the frixos pool too busy (which is often was) just head down to the olympic hotel down the rd a lil bit- its lovely and way more chilled out and has better food. (Its free as long as u have something to eat or drink kinda thing). We went there most days after discovering it!
Im not scared of ghosts and was pretty laid back about the whole thing but still wanted room 10 rather than 12. Thing is though even though we were fine that our room was 'ghostie free' we had a few odd things. One girl kept seeing a woman at the end of her bed. (She was in the bedroom the first week- we swapped rooms the second week). When me and my friend moved into the bedroom the second week my friend who slept in the same bed as the other girl did kept waking up screaming, and I had to wake her up and calm her down. She also jumped out her bed at one point cuz she saw something. I just made jokes about it to try calm evry1 down and forget about it kinda thing but on the first night we were in the bedroom room I woke up and I couldnt move. Something was holding me down and I couldnt scream for help or move and it was horrible! I felt like I was suffocating and dizzy and felt like there was something on top of me. And no we werent 'wasted' when it happened, wish i had been! lol
Me and my friend still stayed in that bedroom (didnt want to go back to the horrible dark kitchen/bedroom bit!) and just made a joke of it and nothing else happened. So watch out for room 10- unless they swapped the numbers of the rooms cuz the girls in room 12 had no problems at all!xx

the food was poor, it was ok when you rock up at 8 or 9 in the morning with the drunken muchies, you can have a slice of toast and some butter.
the staff were lovely, george the bar man gives you free shots, sometimes there a bit like mouthwash, but there free so what the hell.
Be careful, we were fined 40 euro's for a bed sheet!
i wouldn't go back to the hotel purly because i would want to see different hotels.

We had a nice balcony but it overlooked the other hotels pool who constantly had loud music playing. Did not enjoy waking up to Katie Melua!
We got Bed and Breakfast but only had it once as there were ants crawling over everything!
Most of the staff were friendly but some made us feel very unwelcome. the pool was too crowded but there are others around that let anyone in so its not too bad.
The beach is a long walk away, too long for the heat in june!
the shower doesnt work! for the whole two weeks you either got blistering hot water or freezing cold water, very unpleasant!
the hotel is ok if your not going to be in it much but i would definately not go back.

The food is good, the location is perfect as you are only a short distance from the nightlife so you will still be able to sleep without the noise if you wish!
Malia is full of entertainment so you don't need this in the hotel which gives you the option for the relaxing night at the pool bar if you can't handle the crazy nightlife in the centre.
Already booked for the 12th time in June 08.

We have been going to this hotel for 7 years now, we love the people there they are really welcoming, pool area is always clean, plenty to eat and drink,our room is always being cleaned we can find no problems at all at frixos.
Looking forward to our holiday there next September.

The staff were great and did there best to help if you needed anything!
We were self catering and our room was great it was cleaned regulary. Our balcony was huge we had a big massive one then a small one it was great! so if your going over aim for room 20 its fab!
I will definitely return to the Frixos made some great friends and had a wicked holiday, the only thing i will say is the food is not great at the pool bar but really that would be my only complaint.
Our rep was Lyndsey she was great made our holiday fun filled.

We experienced freaky things going on in our apartment, from 2 of the girls seeing figures to 2 out of the 4 of us feeling like they were being pinned down in their sleep.......weird! It got to 2 of us that much that we slept on the beach.

The atmosphere between the guests was great especially the Bath girls in room 2 (and sleeping boy).
If I was to go to this hotel again I wouldn't be as loud to the security when coming in, brake anything or leave playing cards on the balcony because girls from Bath steal them!

We actually came back a week early and cut our holiday short. The only good thing about it was it was central and the pool area was nice. The room was small also. I was really dissapointed with malia and wouldnt ever return.
