Reviews and Ratings
I had a great time at the hotel, enjoying fantastic views from the room at various times of the day. The male receptionist was overly friendly but not very helpful, while the girls at the pool bar and the lady at reception were lovely. The location offers stunning views of the Atlantic and easy access to the beach and nearby old towns.
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms are big and comfortable with a nice balcony and sea view, which I loved. However, the room's condition was appalling with very basic amenities. The dining experience was okay but lacked variety. The staff were friendly and efficient, which enhanced the overall service quality. The location was wonderful with great views and convenient access to various attractions.
My stay at the hotel was an overall pleasant experience. The rooms, although a bit dated, were surprisingly spacious and had everything we needed. The service was outstanding, with attentive staff always ready to assist. The location was fantastic, just a short walk from the beach. The dining options were good, especially being part of an all-inclusive deal. The facilities were well-maintained and provided a comfortable stay.
The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms, though they may appear a bit outdated. The friendly service enhances the overall experience, with some exceptional staff members. The location is ideal, close to the beach and key areas. While the dining options are satisfactory, they could use some improvement. Facilities are well-kept, with recent renovations in some sections.
The hotel is not great on room decor, but safe and clean with handy amenities. Service is friendly overall, but slightly unfriendly at times. The location is the main attraction, with great surroundings and proximity to the lively main strip. Dining options are okay but could use more variety. Facilities are decent.
My stay at the hotel was overall satisfying. The rooms, while a little dated, were perfectly adequate and roomy, with a fabulous little fridge, although I did notice a damp and dank smell in the room with a broken balcony door. The location was great, offering a good view of the sea and convenient access to two different beaches, although there was a slight damp smell likely due to a recent flood. The service was generally good, aside from one gardener who seemed a bit overprotective of the grass. The dining experience had a decent variety of buffet-style food, but could have been warmer with more options. The facilities were adequate overall.
