Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a tranquil stay despite small and noisy rooms, away from the bustling center. The room cleanliness is a concern, but the calm nights are a plus. The location allows easy access to the beach, although uphill on the way back, and is free from touristy crowds.
The hotel offers stunning views, but the service fell short and the rooms are in need of improvement. The dining options were subpar, but the location is convenient and has a nice view.
The hotel rooms were really nice and tidy, very calm at night, but it was quite hot in the room and the elevator could use some improvement. The location was very convenient, although a bit uphill from the beach. The service was friendly, but not very helpful in addressing our requests. The dining experience was lackluster with repetitive and unappealing food choices.
The hotel offers clean and spacious rooms with balconies perfect for evening relaxation, but the beds are old and uncomfortable. The service is a mix of unhelpful responses and friendly assistance, with occasional disturbance from staff. The location is convenient for accessing local attractions but may involve a steep walk back. The dining experience is inconsistent, ranging from acceptable to disappointing. Overall, the facilities are well-maintained.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the value at 20 euros per night was excellent, the rooms were very dirty, with uncomfortable old beds. The noise from both the property and roosters disrupted our sleep. On the bright side, the rooms were spacious, tidy, and provided a calm environment at night.
