The hotel has some great features, including a friendly staff and a lovely sea view. The rooms are spacious, but the bathroom layout could use some improvement. The service is excellent, but the dining options have been quite repetitive over the years. Overall, it's a decent stay with a few things that need attention.

I had a great stay at this hotel, located directly at the beach with an excellent location near plenty of restaurants and shops. The rooms were spacious, modern, and clean, providing a lovely view. However, I found the service to be lacking, as the staff seemed inexperienced and unfriendly at times. Overall, it was a good experience, but there’s definitely room for improvement, especially in service.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel with a fantastic view of the sea from my balcony. The cleanliness of the rooms was impressive, but I found the tiled floors a bit too cold and lacking warmth. The service was professional but not overly attentive, while the location was an absolute highlight. However, I was disappointed by the dining experience, so that’s something to keep in mind if you’re looking for great meals.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was stunning, with a beautiful view of the ocean and nearby attractions. The first room I was assigned had a strong cigarette smell, but I was moved to a better one with an idyllic balcony view, which made up for it. The staff was friendly but sometimes lacking in professionalism, and the dining options were quite disappointing, particularly at breakfast. Overall, while there are nice aspects like the view and some staff members, the service and dining could definitely use some improvement.

The hotel boasts an amazing view and is located right near the beach, making it a great getaway. The room was spacious and comfortable but lacked a few amenities like extra toilet paper, which was a bit of a hassle.

The location of this hotel is simply amazing, with stunning ocean views that take your breath away. The rooms offer a gorgeous view of the sea, and listening to the waves at night is such a treat.

I had a gorgeous view of the sea and the experience of listening to the waves while lying in bed at night was wonderful.
