I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is in a fantastic location close to the beach and the town, but still quiet at night. The rooms were modern and spacious, making my stay very comfortable. The service was friendly, although there were some minor hiccups with housekeeping. Overall, it’s a great value for money, but the dining options could use some improvement.

The staff was friendly, but I found the dining options a bit lacking during breakfast time. Overall, it’s a solid choice for a comfortable stay, but could use a bit of improvement in dining variety.

The hotel is perfectly located just a short walk from the town center and the beach, making it super convenient. The rooms are clean and offer all the necessary facilities, and the staff is really friendly and accommodating. However, I found the breakfast options to be somewhat limited, which was a bit disappointing. The value for money is decent, but I wish they had better parking options available since it can get crowded near the beach.
