Pros:

Tiszta és tágas szoba erkéllyel. A szoba halk és jókat lehet pihenni bár a folyosóról szűrődhetnek be zajok. A reggeli fantasztikus, sok gyümölcs és nagyon finom kávé. A medence mellett mindig volt szabad napágy. A személyzet extra kedves és segítőkész, mindig nagy mosollyal az arcukon. A ráadás pedig az ingyenes shuttle busz a városba és vissza,.

Cons:

A part itt kevésbé szép, a tengerben nem volt kedvünk fürödni. Inkább mindig más partszakaszokat látogattunk meg.

Pros:

The beach was beautiful, an excellent location! Easy walking distance to the old town, even in the heat!

Cons:

Staff were on the whole very helpful and friendly, however there were times when staff appeared reluctant to assist us, with information we required for an emergency.

Pros:

This hotel was a great success for us! The staff were incredibly kind and helpful and were always there whenever we needed anything.
The pool area is very nice, and we also enjoyed the beach area. Although the beach is quite small, the hotel provides free sunbeds and umbrellas. One day, when we mentioned that we were going to another beach, they even offered to lend us an umbrella so we wouldn’t have to buy one. It was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture!
Breakfast was very good, with a large selection of fresh fruit, cheeses, breads, cold cuts, and more. They also prepare fresh eggs to order.
The room was comfortable, and they even upgraded us to a sea-view room, which was a lovely surprise. The air conditioning worked perfectly, the TV had Netflix, and both the mattress and pillows were extremely comfortable.
Overall, we had a really pleasant stay and felt very well taken care of. The kindness and helpfulness of the staff especially made a big difference. We would happily stay here again!

Cons:

There were a few things that could be improved. The flooring in the room seemed to be made of some kind of paper-like material, which didn’t feel very pleasant or high quality. The hotel itself could also benefit from some renovation and updating.
There is no dedicated hotel parking, so you need to find parking on your own nearby. It can also be quite difficult to get a taxi to the hotel at certain times, especially in the afternoon.
That said, these things didn’t take away from our overall positive experience, and we still really enjoyed our stay.
