Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were clean and comfy, with a soft bed and perfect lighting. However, being right next to the street brought a damp smell into the room. The hotel is conveniently located to relax away from the beach but may have issues with foul smells due to sewer problems. The rooms had a full-length mirror and lots of storage space, but the actual setting might not match the attractiveness implied. In terms of cleanliness and comfort, it is not ideal.
The hotel room was spacious for just one person, located on the ground floor, although cleanliness was an issue with dirty towels and sheets. The kitchenette area was not to my liking. The hotel offers some value for money considering the room size and amenities it provides, but cleanliness needs improvement.
The hotel room was surprisingly spacious and had a touch of charm with cleverly improvised privacy arrangements at the window, alongside a view of the casino. However, the cleanliness left much to be desired with old and dated furniture that seemed untouched by the cleaning, requiring a guest to take matters into their own hands, especially with a rather uninviting pool area and sticky, unclean sunbeds. The arrival experience was marred by an unexpected additional charge at another hotel despite an agreement for reciprocal lodging.
The hotel has a big room that looks out onto the garden, just like in the pictures, but the furniture is old and dated. The cleaning was done quickly, and the pool needed attention as it was dirty and being cleaned by a guest. The sunbeds were sticky and unclean.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the room was comfortable and had a small kitchen, the color scheme made me feel a bit claustrophobic. The price was reasonable, especially considering its beach access. Service was good, but the location had some noise issues due to sewer problems. Overall, it's a decent option for the cost.
I found the hotel to be in a convenient location near great beaches, restaurants, bars, and supermarkets. The rooms, however, were in need of modernization and were not as clean as expected upon arrival. The dining options were basic but included in the booking price. Despite these drawbacks, the overall experience was satisfactory.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were well-equipped with a full fridge, microwave, table, and cutlery, which was very convenient. However, the price was a bit higher compared to my previous stay at Hilton London the night before, where I paid £80 less and also had breakfast included.
