The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms with a balcony and a tidy, spacious bathroom. The service provided by the staff is excellent, very helpful, and friendly. The location is great, close to shops, eateries, the beach, and various amenities. The dining experience is decent, though more options could be offered. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were lovely, clean, and had a big balcony with a fantastic view of the sea. The service was a bit lacking in some areas, but the location made up for it. The dining experience could be improved, but the facilities were great.
The hotel is ideally located just a stone's throw from the beach and the shopping strip, making it a great spot for a relaxing stay. The rooms offer a comfy bed and a lovely view of the sea, although the lack of en suite facilities might be a downside, especially considering the price paid and the advance deposit required. The location is a major highlight, right in the main street along the seafront, providing easy access to the beach and city center.
The hotel is situated within walking distance to key attractions, offering modern rooms with the essentials and charming service. However, there were some noise disturbances from other guests. Overall, a convenient and pleasant stay.
The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance to the beach and charming shops. The rooms are clean and well-appointed, though some odors lingered from one room to another. The service was friendly overall, but there were instances of indifference. Dining options were limited to nearby cafes, despite having a bistro on the property. The location is a strong point, being near the city center and offering nice views. Value for money is decent, with some room for improvement in certain areas.
