Last holiday I booked was from the online version of teletext holidays.

By far the cheapest I could find and I checked out ALOT of places.

However the place we stayed at wasnt quite as fantastic as it sounded in the description but had a great holiday non the less

Well the description for the place we stayed said it had its own private beach. turned out to be a small section of beach surrounded by cliffs that had nothing to do with the hotel at all! and it was full of stones!

It was supposed to be a 4 start hotel, but that was by greek standards. The towels were only changed every 3 days (4 star hotels are changed every day in the uk) and you had to pay extra for use of air con or security deposit box - which the description kind of made it sound like all that was inclusive.

not really, if you walk into a travel agents you can end up paying twice the price.

but I spose you got a better idea of what your getting.

if you know a bit about the area your going to and are just looking for a place to crash then generally you'll be fine
