"Slightly out of town (quieter) but a few mins walk away Room spacious and well equipped"
"Some noise from the stairway to the first no floor as nearby. Bed a bit soft (personal opinion) More towels preferred"
"2nd time being here. Spacious room. Friendly staff. Very comfortable bed. Good water pressure. Really close to the beach. Soundproof and not noisy at night."
"If it weren't for that one bug I found at night right before I'm about to sleep I’d give it a 10/10. Staff member in the morning told me they’ve had professional pest control here last month. The hotel offered a 20% off for my next stay. And they’ll do another thorough pest treatment. I’ve spent half a night inspecting the room after eliminating that one bug. I haven’t found more bugs or any eggs. It’s not going to deter me for another stay in the future."
"Suite with a sea view was great. Best room there. 100 meters to the beach"
"Not all rooms are as large or have views. Stairs to 2nd floor hard for those with walking difficulties."
