Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is perfectly situated near the beach and close to various dining options. The rooms are spacious, some with brighter furniture, although she could not use the shower. The service at the reception desk was exceptional. The location is ideal for both the beach and the train station. The dining experience, despite a chef holding a mobile phone, included biscuits. The facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel is perfectly situated in the center of town, ideal for beach and station access, with plenty of restaurants all within walking distance. The service was exceptional, especially at the reception desk. However, the 'Steak & Seafood' restaurant in the vicinity was very poor. The rooms have ample space and some brighter furniture, but with only a shower that couldn't be used with the windows open.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach and surrounded by great restaurants. The rooms were clean and cozy, and the staff was incredibly friendly. However, the dining experience could use some improvement. The facilities, especially the pool area, were well-maintained and enjoyable. The value for money was good overall, although there were some extra charges for Wi-Fi.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, just a stone's throw away from the beach and a short walk to various restaurants. The rooms are spotless and cozy, and the staff is incredibly welcoming. While the dining experience had its drawbacks with limited breakfast options, the overall ambiance and well-kept pool area made my stay delightful. The pricing was fair, but it would be even better if Wi-Fi was complimentary.
I found my stay at the hotel very enjoyable. The rooms were comfortable and clean, the service was exceptional, and the location was perfect for exploring the town. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired. Overall, a great value for the price.
