Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located close to all the local tourist spots, offering comfortable rooms and excellent service. The dining options were limited, but the facilities were impressive and well-maintained. The pricing was reasonable, making it a good value for the money.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, just a stone's throw away from the beach and with easy access to various local attractions and eateries. The rooms were not only sparkling clean but also boasted really cosy and comfortable beds. The service was top-notch, offering car hire, housekeeping, and even a welcome drink upon arrival. However, I did find the price slightly on the higher side. Being so near to get the lift down to the beach was a huge convenience. The dining experience was delightful, especially with the included oatmeal for breakfast. The facilities were excellent, making my stay truly enjoyable.
This hotel is a gem, offering comfort and convenience. The rooms are like a cozy oasis, but the service could be improved. Its location is superb for exploring local attractions, yet dining options are somewhat lacking. The facilities provide a decent experience, but there is room for enhancement.
