Just got back from holiday and here's what I thought:
We had a 1 bed appt which was spacious and clean. The kitchen area was pretty basic( no toaster - but you can hire one).The bathroom was a nice size, however, there was no hair-dryer, but the shower was lovely.The lighting in the appartment was quite dull.
We ate out mostly, but did manage to get a few snacks from the cafe next to the reception. They do things like toasties, jackets, burgers etc....The food was ok - a little bit pricey and the portions mingy.
The staff were nice and friendly.
The main negative side was the noise overnight, people coming back from pubs/clubs and carrying on with their partying in their balconies/room/corridor. Didn't get much sleep for a few nights. Not really nice when you have young children. I would not go back in the high season -can't imagine the noise level then!!!
All in all it was a nice holiday and we spent a lot of time relaxing by the pool!

Stayed in the Las Piramides between 26th March and 3rd April. The hotel is situated in a quiet road off from the main dual carriage way link about two hundred yards from the sea front, across the road from the Colon and Colon 2. The room was great, had a 1 bedroom selfcatering apartment on the top floor which overlooked the childrens pool. We had 3 balconies, 2 off the main living area and a separate one off the bedroom. Although it was self catering there was only a 2 ring hob available and a fridge, you had to hire a toaster if you wanted toast in the morning.
The hotel had a maize of corridors and it took a while to learn how to get from the hotel reception to our room. There were 2 large pools, 1 being a childrens area which was quite useful. A large supermarket is on site but does not provide a good array of goods for sale and is quite expensive, unlike the bar which was quite cheap and has a happy hour between 6 and 9.30 every night.
Some of the rooms are currently being renovated so their was a bit of noise over the pool area during the day but apart from the that the whole place was peaceful given its central location.
On the negative side, there were a couple of times when we were infested with a number of cockroaches so had to put down towels as they were getting in under the door at night

We stayed for one week.
The room was old fashioned but very clean, towels bedding changed every other day, we did not experience any noise at night.
We did not sample hotel food as we went out each evening.
The location was good just a short walk to shops, bars etc. and about 15 minutes to the beaches at Troya.
We didn't find the hotel staff very friendly or helpful, we were burgled on our third day, money,credit cards, phones, driving licence, passports the lot. Make sure your safe is securely fitted and not been previously broken into, there was five of us broken into on same day. The cleaners tend to leave doors open as they go about their work, also check your balcony doors lock.
We didn't bother with the entertainment it was not for us.
We will not return, the reps were useless at this hotel.

We stayed in a one bedroom apartment which was really big! It was quite dull at times though but that would be my only complaint, apart from the few cockroaches that visited us but I think that was because we were top floor and they were falling from the roof!
We had 3 balconies though which was fantastic! One from the bedroom, one from the living room and one through an arch of the living room one! The balconies had plugs in them which is great as you can dry your hair outside so it isn't hot and stuffy!
The location is great, it's just of a road with lots of bars and restaurants and a few mins walk from the resort centre!
The staff were very helpful! There is a bar and a supermarket on sight.
This hotel was mainly young people but still wasn't noisy and rowdy! I would go back to these apartments again definitely!

We stopped at Las Piramides at the end of April/beginning of May 2003. It was a late deal so we were allocated accommodation on arrival. We were pleasantly surprised when we were shown our room. We had a studio which consisted of twin beds, two balconies overlooking the pool, TV, wardrobes, table, sink, fridge and hob and some basic kitchen utensils were provided, and a bathroom which was nice and clean and very airy. The shower was lovely.
There was a restaurant but we didn't use it so I can't comment, and there was a supermarket which sold everything which we needed while we were there (for those of you who miss cheeseums pringles, they sell those!) On the whole though we ate out in the evenings, and bought food from the supermarket at the end of the road for breakfast. The bar was nice and had entertainment each night, although we preferred to go out and about at night so didn't take advantage of it.
We did encounter a couple of cockroaches, but luckily not in our room, and there is a particular breed of pigeon like bird that likes to sit on the balconies, but they didn't cause any problems.
There was a Thomsons's desk in the foyer which was manned for several hours a day, and had lots of useful leaflets available.
Two negative things that I can remember: firstly, on the last day we had a late flight, but had to check out of the room at about midday, and then we had to leave our bags just in the foyer, there was no locked room, secondly, I collected all the leaflets etc. from different places we'd been and they were on the table in our room, but the cleaners must've got a bit enthusiastic one day because they threw them all away.

If you like smashing glass, shouting, swearing and lots of drunken kids falling all over the place in the early hours of the morning, this is a must for you!
All the staff are deaf, because they never hear anything or do anything about it.
Will not be staying there again!

we stayed in the las piramides in plda a couple of years ago and i would honestly say we would never go back.
we never got told it was a 18-30s until we got there everybody went mad as some people had young children. at the night time the noise was terrible,doors being slamed in the hallways,every one partying on the balconys ok everyone wants to enjoy themselves but this just wasnt fair for us all.
one day we come back from the beach and i noticed my toothbrush had gone plus when i started looking round our room i noticed that was not all what had gone our toothpaste, a brand new shirt,our own towels from home,and half a bottle of aftershave. but when i looked at the doors there was no force shown on the doors, so it must of happened when the cleaners came into the room.
apart from this the hotel was very clean,we did not try the food as we eaten out every day&night,but the staff was not helpful at all.
this aparthotel was very central close to bars restaurants and shops.
