Hotel external appearance as in brochure, lovely.
We stayed in one of the rooms nearest to the street, so I [Pauline] was woken every night by people returning to their rooms/arriving wheeling baggage, and every morning by the maids banging furniture around![Martin managed to sleep through it].
We stayed for one week, bedding and towels were changed once; room ,quickly mopped twice[nb; the maids will come in and clean your room even if you are still there,we had to sit on the balcony in our pyjamas, out of the way, they were friendly though!]bins were emptied most days.
The bathroom and towels, especially ,had seen better days and the kitchen work top was tatty in places;
There was no kettle, just the usual pan, so we could only fill one cup/pan.
Reception was usually un-manned, so it is advisable to kep your key with you

My husband and I were looking for a week in the sun to relax, and had read the previous reviews before travelling, which was helpful.
On arrival, the apartments look just like the web site & brochure. We got one of the newer apartments at the rear of the property, with a view over Hersonnisos and the sea in the distance.
As we were on the first floor, our balcony got sun all day; the only major downfall were the birds nesting under the roof tiles, which started clattering about as soon as the sun came up (which was long before we had planned to be awake).
The rooms are basic, with the bins emptied daily, the towels were changed twice in the week, and a brief clean once. Its worth noting that once the loo roll runs out, its up to you to supply your own! The kitchen doesnt have a toaster or microwave, but how much time do you want to spend there when you're on holiday.
We never had a problem getting a bed around the pool, there were no lager louts, and Jainis kept the atmosphere friendly and lovely cold drinks from the bar.
Overall we thought these were lovely apartments for a value for money holiday,(I'd say not 5* as suggested by Hellenic Holidays, closer to 3*).
We would go back again, due to the overall friendly and relaxing atmosphere, and good location.

The apartments were fairly basic but very clean, cleaners came every day to clean bathroom and mop the floor. Bedding and towels changed every couple of days, we had an apartment just under the bottom pool overlooking the resort of Hersonisis spectacular view.
We did not eat here as we were self catering and there were more than enough taverna's for everyones taste. They do do breakfast for 4-5 euro's and also have a pool bar which does sausage, bacon and burgers all reasonably priced. Jiannis the manager fronts the pool bar while his wife Maria does the breakfast Baboshis bar manager also steps in and also runs the bar at night.
All the staff were very friendly and family oriented.
There were 2 pools one near reception and one on a lower floor, they do not put on entertainment but some of the taverna's and bars do.
The location is ideal as you are out of the hustle and bustle of Hersonisis and Malia but if you take a 20 minute stroll downhill you will then be amongst it.
I will be booking this holiday again as we had a brilliant time. One thing to note is that a lot of the people staying in Hersonisis will come up to Piskopiano, old Hersonisis and Koutouloufari to eat at night as the food is better here so it does get very busy traffic wise at night (beware scooters and quad bikes)

We thought the Pisko Piano apartments were fantastic. Basic, yes, but everything and all areas were kept meticulously clean.
The chap who did maintenance never stopped from 7am until around 5p.m. in the afternoon, helping housekeeping, mowing the lawns,helping behind the bar, etc. Yes, you do have to pay for air con. but the apartments are so cheap to go and stay that we thought the 40odd euro was well worth it.
The couple who ran the apartments Jiannis and Maria and their family were keen to stress that they wanted to keep it a family and couples kind of place and did not want large groups of "lager louts".
The location was perfect. Nestled between two villages,Koutalafari 5mins walk and Old Hersonnisos village a good 10 min walk in the opposite direction.
And yes we are definitely going to go back this year.

We stayed in PiskoPiano Village Appartments in August. We had a two bedroomed apartment and it was cleaned every day. Only thing they forgot to mention Air Conditioning and extra 42 Euros per week and safe box at extra cost. Lovely location and would go again.

Friendly, family run apartment complex, 2 swimming pools, small children's play area.
Pool bar offering drinks, snacks and ice cream 9-6. Greek night every other week, breakfast available between 8.30 and 11 (additional cost)
Short walking distance to good choice of restaurants and small supermarkets.
Dutch tour companies take up the largest allocation of rooms at Piskopiano village apartments, new property for Hellenic voyages in 2005.
Rooms are basic but clean, kitchen has 2 ring electric hob, fridge, kettle and sufficient plates, glasses cutlery etc.
Mix of families and lads when we were there (they were kept on a short rope by the management and caused no problems).
Excellent value, I hope I will have the opportunity to go back.
