Reviews and Ratings
This hotel offers a lovely stay in a peaceful area near the sea, providing clean and comfortable rooms with a mix of old equipment and new furniture. The staff is attentive and welcoming. However, there were minor issues with water overflowing. Close to the seaside offering fresh sea air but lacking self-service dining options.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with new furniture in good condition and friendly service. However, the beds are a bit old, and some equipment shows signs of age. The location is ideal, near cafes and with convenient access to a public sandy beach. The dining experience with tropical fruits is a standout feature. Overall, a good value for money choice.
I stayed at this hotel, and it's such a great spot! Right by the beach and close to many restaurants. The rooms are lovely, and the staff is incredibly friendly. However, the breakfast options were a bit limited. The pool area is well-kept and fun. The price is reasonable, but the Wi-Fi is an extra cost.
