Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is ideally located near the town center and just a short stroll from the beautiful beach with lovely gardens. While the service was friendly, there could have been more attention to detail and hospitality. The dining options were somewhat limited, but the staff were pleasant and helpful. The value for money was decent considering the location.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was convenient, close to the town center and within walking distance of everything we needed. The rooms were a letdown with no bedside tables and thin walls, though the beach was outstanding. The service lacked hospitality and customer care, but the gardens were lovely. Dining options were limited, and I only got served gluten-free toast upon request. Price could have been better for what was offered.
The hotel has a lovely location near the sea with beautiful gardens. The rooms were a mix of dated decor and cleanliness issues. The service could have been more hospitable. Dining options were limited to specific diets, and the thin crispy fries were a highlight.
