The hotel is well-located near the beach and offers a comfortable stay with friendly staff. However, the rooms show signs of wear and lack a scenic view. The saltwater swimming pool and convenient location next to a conference center are notable highlights.

I couldn't have asked for a better stay! Our room was comfy and clean, the staff were so kind and helpful, and the saltwater swimming pool was a real treat. The hotel's location was perfect, and the breakfast was just what we needed to start the day. The only downside was the request for a non-smoking room and the price we paid, but overall, it was worth it!

The hotel's location in the historical center was excellent, although finding the way to the parking garage was a bit tricky. Despite this, being close to shops and restaurants made up for it. However, the sound of air conditioning units was a constant background noise, which was not very relaxing.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with comfortable and logically furnished rooms close to the old town. The beds were really cozy, but the heating could have been better. The service was excellent, with efficient garage staff and fantastic electric bikes. The location was great, right in the historical center, although finding the way to the parking garage was a bit challenging. The dining experience exceeded my expectations with a good selection and a nice coffee bar. Overall, a decent value for money option with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with saltwater swimming pools and a great location close to the old town. The bathrooms are huge and provide a sense of luxury, complemented by the hotel's excellent breakfast. However, finding the way to the parking garage might be a challenge, and the early closure of the drinks bar in August could hinder relaxation due to the constant noise of air conditioning units.

The hotel unfortunately was very small and dark; it was dated, with no tea or coffee amenities, and definitely not the most comfortable place we have stayed. Without a cozy ambiance and concerns about the ability for someone to get into the room, choosing your room carefully is essential.

The location was good for access to the town and beach, with a short walk to several great dinner restaurants. However, the constant noise from air conditioning units made it less relaxing. It was near the beach and conference center but lacked a peaceful ambiance.
