Grand if your looking for cheap and cheerful, but the food was better than expected
Pros:

Good food and good value.

Very basic, staff not really up to par and needs updating. A few things we asked for we were told they don’t have/do that.

Ca ne vaut pas le prix
Pros:

Bon chauffage, propre, confortable et bon petit dej. Belle vue sur la mer

Cons:

Vieillot quand même pour le prix, pas de chaînes TV pour un bon film ou dessin animé avec des enfants (à 140 euros la nuit on attend quand même des chaînes satellite), petit dej sympa mais il faut demander sinon ils ne vous disent pas que vous avez accès à un petit dej chaud traditionnel en plus du continental très basique qui est proposé.
Ca ne vaut pas vraiment le prix

Brilliant
Pros:

I liked how close it was to the beach and the beds were super comfy.

Cons:

The carpet that we had in our room was quite dirty but that’s not to say it wasn’t cleaned or anything it just took the nice away from the room is all.

La vista e la vicinanza con la spiaggia

La stanza era molto piccola e si sentiva un odore di muffa... un vero peccato visto la struttura e il numero di servizi offerti
