Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a superb location, ideal for beach lovers and close to local shops. The rooms are well-appointed and immaculately clean, though the small twin room may feel cramped, especially the shower. Overall, a great place to stay but opting for a double room may offer more comfort.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The room I stayed in was brilliant, very spacious, and immaculately clean. The staff were accommodating and friendly, making sure I felt well taken care of throughout my stay. The location was just what I wanted, close to shops, the promenade, and with good access to transportation. The dining experience was excellent with plenty of choices available. I enjoyed the well-stocked bar and lovely entertainment on Saturday evening. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
The stay was overall pleasant with nicely decorated rooms and good service. However, some areas like the room atmosphere and late door closing were a bit off. The location was great for accessing both shops and the promenade.
