The hotel offered spacious and clean rooms, with friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast, served at a nearby terrace, was really nice and had enough choice. the hotel had a great location close to the beach and main road for exploring the island. the value for money was excellent.
The soundproofing in the rooms was poor. Although the hotel is located on a quiet road, noise from outside could still be heard.

I had a wonderful stay at a hotel near a beautiful beach and the sea. The hotel was impeccably clean and had great facilities, including parking and transportation options. Its location was perfect as it was close to the longest beach in this city and made it easily accessible. The breakfast provided was delicious and the staff was very friendly and attentive.
Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.

Great value for money! the rooms were clean and cozy, and the breakfast was fantastic. Loved the convenient location near the beach and main roads. It was also great to have free parking. the staff were very helpful with recommendations for local sights and activities.
the pool was not located on the hotel grounds, but it was still a short walk away and had a beautiful view of the beach.
