A lovely hotel just one block back from the beach. The rooms are spacious and clean. The roof top bar and pool are great. My only slight negative is the staff at the roof top bar weren’t very friendly and I had to go to the bar to order food even though they were just stood around chatting. Reception staff were great.

It’s doesn’t have any coffee bar in the room, nor free water. Checking in also took a long time. Aside from those, the hotel is nice.

The hotel was fine overall and we appreciated being allowed to use the pool before check-in. However, for a 4-star property the service fell short. No bathrobe or slippers in the room, breakfast I had paid for was not honored at check-in, and staff didn’t mention that beach chairs and umbrellas were included—I only found out from other guests. Communication needs improvement.

Good location for family and close to the beach. The hotel itself could use a facelift. The room was dark and old with things falling apart. Not enough elevators for the amount of people in the hotel. The positive was the breakfast. A lot of options to choose from but it was very crowded for most of the morning. The staff was very nice, cordial and helpful. The rooftop has a nice view and I wish that’s where breakfast was served.

More a 2.5 star hotel - centrally located, quiet and close to the beach - next to good restaurants like Joaquina - area a bit rundown - personnel/service average with a few outstanding exceptions - overall good value for money for the holiday season.

I love the location, so close to the beach, very nice roof terrace although it is small. The only disadvantage is the reception which has only a few members of staff so we had to wait one hour for check-in.
