Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were perfectly fine, clean, and comfortable, although there were some minor issues like a wonky light switch and a broken safe upon arrival. The housekeeping could use some improvement. The service was a mixed bag with inconsistency in answers from different employees, but generally, the staff were nice and did a good job maintaining the property. The location was convenient, clean, and well cared for, offering a great place to enjoy lunch. The dining experience was fantastic with a wide selection of quality foods and different themed nights. The facilities were satisfactory, catering to various needs during my stay.
My stay at the hotel was delightful overall. The rooms were basic but comfortable and clean, right by the beach, with a nice touch of having a coffee maker. The service was exceptional, with staff always friendly and attentive, making my vacation even more enjoyable. The location was charming, surrounded by lush greenery and offering easy access to nearby attractions. While the dining experience was lovely, there were some minor issues we encountered. Overall, a great value for the wonderful experience.
This hotel had a mix of ups and downs. The rooms were nice but there were issues with last-minute changes without explanation. The service was exceptional and friendly, although some aspects seemed artificially friendly. The location was pleasant with nice views but could get crowded. The dining experience was fantastic with delicious and varied choices. Despite some rough patches, the facilities were well-kept and enjoyable.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious and always clean, with nice big bathrooms, but there were a few unwelcome guests in the form of large waterbugs. The service was attentive, although the food didn't live up to high Italian culinary standards. The location was ideal, with lush and green surroundings, but not all guests were as polite as expected. The dining options were varied, with different themes each night, but not all meals were equally impressive.
