Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a relatively good location near the beach and lovely shops, but the morning smell could be better. The rooms are clean, but the balcony is quite small. The service is below average, with unhelpful staff mainly communicating with body language. The dining experience is not up to 4-star level. Despite these drawbacks, the facilities are satisfactory.
The hotel's location was ideal, close to the beach and charming shops. Although the room cleanliness left something to be desired, and the service felt somewhat outdated, the overall experience wasn't exceptional.
The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms, ideal for a relaxing holiday, although maid service was lacking. Its central 24-hour location provides easy access to other hotels and bars, offering a vibrant setting.
The hotel rooms were spacious and clean, though the balcony in these rooms was the smallest I've ever seen. The service, except for one bartender, lacked friendliness and professionalism, with communication mainly through body language. Despite some drawbacks, the location was excellent, just a short walking distance from the beach and charming shops, although there were occasional unpleasant odors in the morning. The dining experience was not up to 4-star standards, but they did offer biscuits. Overall, the facilities were decent, though not exceptional.
The hotel's location is fantastic, near the beach and walking distance to lovely shops. The rooms were barely cleaned, requiring me to request new towels on the third day, which was reluctantly done. Some safety concerns were also noted. Despite these drawbacks, the service was lacking a welcoming attitude, especially the cleaning lady in the reception area, who seemed grumpy. The hotel's dining offerings did not meet a 4-star level, but there was an assortment of fruits available. The overall atmosphere was marred by morning smells that may have originated from rowdy young guests.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with friendly animators and a large pool, exactly as described. The rooms are spacious and perfect for a holiday, ensuring a cozy stay. However, the service could be more receptive, although amenities like dry cleaning and housekeeping were brilliant, even assisting with taxi arrangements. The location, although near the beach, had some unpleasant moments due to drunk guests, yet it's only a 10-minute walk through charming shops to the beach. The dining experience may not be at a 4-star level, but the meat dishes were commendable. The facilities are top-notch, providing a range of services for a pleasant stay.
I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel's location, only a short walk from the beach and charming shops. The room itself needed some attention from the maid, even requesting new towels was a task. The corridor decor felt a bit neglected with frames askew. Still, the balcony and large window offered lovely views.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with a big bed, great air conditioning, and friendly staff. The location is near the beach and walking distance to shops, although there was a slight odor issue in the morning. The dining experience may not be on par with a 4-star level, but the facilities are convenient and well-maintained.
The hotel is in a very good place, approximately 10 minutes from the beach walking past the lovely shops. The rooms were very wide and clean, but I did ask for extra towels which were never sent to my room. The service was mostly not welcoming, and rude especially one cleaning lady who cleans the reception area. The location is great, close to the beach, but it smelled like vomit in the morning, probably because there were a lot of drunk, young guests there. The dining is not in 4-star level; however, they do serve fried rice.
Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were spacious, clean, and provided ample comfort for our family. The service was excellent, with friendly staff always ready to assist. Despite a few minor issues, the location was convenient and offered easy access to the beach. The dining experience was decent, but not exceptional. The facilities met our needs and added to the enjoyment of our stay.
