Reviews and Ratings
I was pleasantly surprised by my stay. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and surrounded by a beautiful garden. The fresh air and proximity to the sea added to the tranquility of the experience. However, the service was a bit slow, which affected my dining experience. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would consider returning for another visit.
My experience at this hotel started off well, with my room being quite clean and comfortable. However, the service was disappointing, taking far too long for meals, and there were serious issues with amenities like water pressure and Wi-Fi. While the location is decent, I can’t say the value for money is justified, especially with the price set to increase soon.
I had a comfortable stay at this hotel with a stunning sea view room that made my visit memorable. The meeting room was fully loaded and the amenities, including the spa, were a pleasant surprise. However, the service left something to be desired, particularly in the restaurant where things took too long and orders were mixed up. Overall, I appreciate the friendly atmosphere, but service efficiency needs improvement.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While my room was clean and had a great sea view, the service left much to be desired with long wait times and unprofessional staff. The location is nice, being close to the beach, but the overall dining experience was lacking. Facilities were okay, but there were definitely areas for improvement.
My experience at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were clean and offered a fantastic beach view, but the food left much to be desired. The location is ideal for beach lovers, but the street noise at night can be disruptive. Overall, it’s a decent option with some downsides that shouldn’t be overlooked.
