Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms, missing a view but very clean. The service was cheerful and helpful, yet a bit forgetful at times. The location is superb for walking, close to shops, but average dining experience. The facilities are well-maintained.

The service was exceptional, with staff being friendly, professional, and helpful, enhancing the overall stay. The location was perfect for easy access to the town, restaurants, and the beach, making it a great base for exploring the area. Despite some issues with the dining options, the facilities, such as the pool, steam room, and jacuzzi, added extra value to the stay at fantastic pricing.
