Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a fantastic location, just a few minutes' walk from the sandy beaches, town center, and entertainments. The rooms were spacious, though the double bed was against the roof. The service felt more like being welcomed by friends, and the dining experience was fantastic with a good selection for breakfast. However, the housekeeping could have been more attentive. Overall, a great value for money stay.
The hotel is centrally located, close to the beach and town center, making it convenient for exploring. The rooms, although small and under the eaves, were cozy and tidy, ideal for a short stay. The service was warm and accommodating, but certain requests, like specific egg preparations, were declined due to the high volume of guests. The dining experience was enjoyable, particularly for meat lovers, and the proximity to attractions was a major plus.
The hotel was perfect for my business trip - nice, clean property run by friendly and helpful staff. The location was brilliant and very close to the town center, making it convenient for exploring. The dining experience was fantastic with a big recommendation to all visitors. The rooms were very clean and comfy, and the breakfast was great value for money. Would definitely stay here again.
