Reviews and Ratings
I couldn't believe the trek I had to make to reach our room, but once there, it was comfortable and clean. The staff were helpful despite some confusion. The location was fantastic, right across from the beach, but a bit like a busy seaside resort. The dining options were varied but lacking in quality.
I had an amazing sea view from both the bedroom and bathroom, but the reality didn't match the website depiction. The shower was quite small, making it a bit cramped to use, especially with the layout requiring the shower cubicle door to be opened for toilet access. On the bright side, the staff was very friendly, and when we upgraded to a larger room with a better shower for more money, it was worth it.
The hotel offers very comfortable rooms, with nice big beds and spacious bathrooms. While there isn't a garden, the west side 'park view' room on the 3rd floor was very cozy and pleasant.
