We loved our stay here
Pros:

We absolutely loved this hotel and only wish we could have stayed longer! The room was huge and had everything we could possibly need. The pool was lovely and always clean, and the sunbeds were so comfortable.

All of the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our stay. The food and drinks were also reasonably priced, which was a lovely bonus.

The hotel is in a great location, only around a five-minute walk from the beach, making it easy to get around. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel!

A comfortable and enjoyable stay with excellent service, clean facilities, and a great location.
Pros:

This was my second time staying at Morning Star Hotel, and once again I had a pleasant experience. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The staff were very supportive, friendly, and always willing to assist.

The swimming pool was clean. The hotel's location is also very convenient, with easy access to transportation and within walking distance of the beach.

Cons:

The only area that could be improved is the breakfast, as there were very limited options available. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend the hotel to others.

The place has been renamed retirement home by the locals; it fits the description.
Pros:

Proximity to the beach and city center

Cons:

The breakfast was very basic and underwhelming, the brown tiny lady serving breakfast was also rude.

The cleaning was not done on a daily basis.

No fun activities, shutdown at 9pm

Bra men behöver fixa lite
Pros:

Poolen är fantastisk

Cons:

De behöver få ordning på incheckningen är inte rimligt när du kommer 14:00 och rummet inte är klart och ända beskedet är soon. Även varmvatten funkar i bland och AC funkar inte alls behöver de få ordning på.

Pros:

Вежливый и отзывчивый персонал. По моей просьбе сразу устранили неисправность кондиционера и добавили вешалок в шкаф. Номер большой. Уборка ежедневно, бассейн и территорию чистят ежедневно. В ресторане отлично кормят, не недешево Отличные, но однообразные завтраки. .На кухне есть всё необходимое,, кроме микроволновой печи.В целом, я рекомендую этот отель!

Cons:

Было много пыли в шкафах и на верхних поверхностях. Дорогой ресторан. Отсутствие микроволновки. Вроде бы всё, что нужно есть, но разогреть еду можно только на плите.
