Categories

Cleanliness
5.2
Mixed reports: some guests said rooms were immaculate and floors were mopped frequently, while others described the property as dirty/old and noted the pool wasn't always as clean as it should be.
Service
6.6
Generally friendly and helpful staff cited in multiple reviews and a manager praised for good handling, but there are also comments about unhelpful receptionists and occasional rough interactions when dealing with drunken guests.
Location
8
Consistently praised as excellent and extremely central (on the main strip/Oura strip) — ideal for nightlife and stag groups — though its position makes it noisy at night.
Room Quality
4.8
Several guests report ineffective or non-functioning air conditioning, dated rooms and thin soundproofing; occasional low water pressure for showers.
Amenities
6.6
Pool and outdoor areas are frequently noted as good and well kept; breakfast is described as OK. However, advertised air-conditioning as an amenity often fails, reducing comfort.
Value for Money
5.6
Mixed perceptions: some guests felt it was good value, others found it expensive given the rundown aspects, noise and AC problems.
Food and Beverage
6.2
Limited comments beyond 'breakfast was okay'; no strong positives or negatives to change the target rating.
Overall Experience
6.6
Overall a mixed but slightly positive experience for party-focused guests due to location and pool; issues with AC, noise and occasional cleanliness/safety concerns temper the score.

Pros:

La disponibilità della ragazza della reception, che ha capito che avevamo esigenze diverse dalla maggior parte dei clienti

Cons:

Inglesi ubriachi, zona rumorosa, aria condizionata nn funzionante con caldo al limite della sopportabilità. La frequentazione di ubriachi che si sentono vomitare nei bagni attigui alla stanza.

Horrible .
Pros:

El desayuno no esta mal.

Cons:

El hotel esta viejo y antiguo , el aire acondicionado no funcionaba , el mando de la pared esta destrozado y se ve que era falta de manteniemiento , avise para que lo vieran y no hicieron ni caso . El exterior del hotel esta sucio y deteriorado . Desde primera hora de la mañama hay musica en la piscina a todo volumen , ruidos de las habitaciones y los pasillos por las noches. Te piden una fianza de 100 €. Ha sido una experinecia pesima . No lo recomiendo .
