    Our room was rather small and the sea view restricted. A fridge is required and paper cups are not acceptable. The bar area is very uninviting

    Excellent staff and very clean

    The room was rather small. We had no comfortable chair or space for one. There was only a desk chair. The bathroom was very small. Again no space for a stool or chair to put clothes on. It would have been use ful to have a fridge or kettle for drinks..

    The breakfast was adequate I would have preferred more variety of cooked vegetables e.g. mushrooms, t tomatoes. Good location. Close to the sea and shops. Friendly and helpful staff.

    The furniture is a bit dated, as well as the carpet and amenities in general. Based on the price, I would have like to have little extras such as lotion and shampoo in the bathroom, or a bottle of water in the room as well as a fridge.

    Lovely location and communal spaces.

    The whole hotel is in desperate need of an extensive renovation. The bathrooms are very dated and although cleaned as much as possible, don’t look clean. The previous wholes in the wallpaper have been painted over and paint is old and grubby.

    Location is great! Beach on on side and sea on the other

    Breakfast was not impressive. Rooms desperately need fridges, particularly in the warmer weather when drinking plenty of water is essential.

    We missed coffee-maschine and fridge in the room. The breakfast menu was exactly the same each day and became a bit boring after a week

    Nice location with less than a minute to the beach. Small but cosy balcony and sea view. Friendly and helpful staff. Smart system with sun chairs and umbrella for free use (recirculating leftovers from previous guests, we left one to this pool as well)

    First of all, even that has nothing to do with the hotel, the beach was in terrible condition, i never saw something worst that that: no sand, full of big rocks and very deep on a short distance from the shore. About the hotel, my room wasn t clean, there was sand and hair on the carpet when we arrived, also dust almost everywhere. Same thing on outside corridors. Also there is a big problem with parking spots, we parked inside to a private parking on 5 min away from hotel (15euro/day).

    The position of the hotel is excellent, the reception team was very helpful and always ready for giving informations, breakfast very tasty

    The rooms are a bit tired. The air conditioning wasn't very effective but we could open thd windows which was lovely. The breakfast was good but very understaffed and regularly was in need of replenishing, even first thing.

    Perfect location on the seafront in the old town. The staff were so welcoming and helpful on reception.

    No fridge in the room, we want to buy some delicatessen to bring back with us, and without fridge its not possible to store them. We asked for check in 10 minutes before 15, and 1st reception women refused- until i didnt ask if 10 mins really making changes on the room availability. Poor breakfast

    Not very big but nice room, with good view on the sea

    The breakfast which we mostly skipped…..very second rate. Fresh fruit old and uninteresting when shops full of beautiful fresh fruit. Staff didn’t seem to care and not helpful. We got our food on a tray which we were supposed to put in a trolley when finished! More like a boarding school or old peoples home…..very easy to fix. It definitely needs updating. Plus they never seemed to keep front garden clean and swept. Again easy to fix,

    Location was fabulous. Staff were very good at reception and cleaning staff. We felt very happy. There was a new trainee on reception and she was particularly good.
