Reviews and Ratings
The hotel room was alright, with the bathroom being the best part. I was a bit disappointed that they didn't provide extras to the room. However, it was quieter, although the bedding was dirty on arrival, the floors filthy, with black mold, and dirty toilets. The lack of locks on the door and poor drainage were concerning.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and very comfortable, offering a quiet escape overlooking a serene road. However, the ground floor felt a bit dark and dingy in the late afternoon. The hotel is ideal for relaxation with a good-sized balcony at the end of the garden.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. On the positive side, the rooms were spacious and well-equipped, but there was a persistent unpleasant smell. The staff's service left much to be desired, especially at meal times, where there seemed to be a lack of friendliness towards English-speaking guests. The location was convenient with some nice beach bars nearby, but there were cleanliness issues at the outdoor tables. The dining experience, although offering a good variety of food, had its drawbacks with some patrons feeling mistreated for being English. Overall, there were some positives but also significant negatives to consider.
