I had a stay at this hotel, and while the location was fantastic, close to the beach and restaurants, the rooms left much to be desired. They were basic and had a strong odor that wasn't pleasant. However, the service from the staff was very helpful and friendly, which made up for some of the downsides. Overall, I think the hotel has great potential, but it definitely needs some upgrades and better dining options.

I stayed at this hotel recently and found it had some positives and negatives. The location is great, being just a short walk to the beach and restaurants. The rooms are spacious, but the air conditioning situation wasn't ideal, making it uncomfortable at times. The service was lacking, with staff not being very attentive and even unprofessional at moments. Overall, while there are good aspects, I wouldn’t say it’s worth the price tag of £100 per night.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms were spacious, but the air conditioning was an issue since it was either too cold or too warm without a fan option. Overall, the large bathroom and spacious shower were nice, but they definitely didn’t justify the £100 price tag.

The hotel is situated in a lovely location right by the marina, giving it a vibrant atmosphere without being too noisy. While it offers a friendly and accommodating staff, the room conditions left much to be desired, especially with some maintenance issues. The dining options were limited and not very satisfying, which was a downside for our stay. Overall, the hotel has potential but needs improvements in room maintenance and dining variety.

El hotel tiene una ubicación excelente, a solo un corto paseo de la playa y cerca de varios restaurantes. Las habitaciones son pequeñas y no ofrecen amenities como una nevera o una caja fuerte, y el baño es un poco incómodo. Aunque el servicio fue generalmente bueno y algunos empleados fueron muy amables, la limpieza en las áreas exteriores podría mejorar. En general, es un lugar conveniente, pero con algunas áreas que necesitan atención.

However, the rooms were quite disappointing with some serious cleanliness issues, and the dining options left a lot to be desired.

The hotel offered a beautiful view of the marina and our room, while a bit dated, was clean and spacious. The location was great, just a pleasant walk from the main town and beach.
