Location
Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms, although closer to a 2-star level, are large and airy with essential amenities. The service is not friendly or welcoming but does its best during dining. The location is hidden, spoiled by smoke, and lacks modern amenities, yet it's near the beach. The dining offers a typical Italian spread, but with limitations. The facilities require standard maintenance with some drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was uninspiring, but the service from the staff was fantastic. The rooms were not quite up to a 4-star standard, but the dining experience was enjoyable. The facilities were lacking in some areas, but the beach nearby was a nice bonus.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were really poor inside, badly furnished, and outdated, the pool area was a bit better, though not worth what we paid. The staff was friendly and helpful, but there were issues with maintenance and amenities. The location was compromised by constant smoke and lacked modern comforts. The dining options were overpriced and limited. However, the hotel had a private, walled garden and was near the sea.
The hotel had rooms that were closer to a 2-star level but provided all we needed, except for a kettle for a good cup of tea. The service, however, was brilliant, with staff doing their best to make dining experiences pleasant. The location, unfortunately, was marred by smoke from nearby burners, and the dining options left much to be desired. Overall, a budget-friendly stay with some drawbacks.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were a good size with enough storage, but they were definitely not four-star quality. The shower was a little small, yet functional and clean. The service, without exception, was unfriendly. On the positive side, the location, remote but enjoyable with a car, was very peaceful with plenty of sun. The dining experience was entertaining, although the food seemed biased towards the German diet.
