Friendly and helpful reception staff
Live music (piano) at breakfast room!

The beach has constructions ahead of summer music festivals.... a bit of an eye sore
Furnishing starts to show a bit of age - some bathroom areas didn't seem that clean

Aanrader
Pros:

Het personeel. Heel vriendelijk ontvangst. Een lekkere welkomswijn. Duidelijke omschrijving van het hotel en het verloop van het ontbijt. Bagage werd naar de kamer gebracht. Samengevat een goede staff.

Cons:

Onze kamer in de hoek links onder de nieuwe bar was niet zo een toplocatie maar voor de weinige momenten dat we er waren kon het ermee door. De schuifdoor van de kast zat wat vast en een lamp was aan het flikkeren. Wanneer we dit wilden melden was het personeel steeds druk met klanten dus hebben we het zo gelaten omdat we er maar voor een korte periode waren.

Pros:

It was clean. The food was good albeit abit repetitive at times.

Cons:

The front picture of the hotel is misleading, it suggests the hotel is in isolation, it is not. The rooftop terrace/bar is no longer part of the hotel and there can be loud music from live bands that affects hotel guests. Also festivals are held on the public beach and the preparation restricts use whilst causing noise that the hotel guests should have been warned of prior to their arrival. There are therefore disclosure issues with this hotel.

Sehr schönes Hotel mit Top Lage !
Pros:

Top Lage, sehr freundliche Mitarbeiter an der Rezeption, Frühstück und Abend Buffett sehr gut und abwechslungsreich. Parkplatz direkt vor dem Hotel.

Cons:

die Mitarbeiter im Restaurant waren, bis auf eine ältere Dame nicht sehr freundlich. Besonders zwei junge Mädchen die für das Eindecken und abräumen zuständig waren, sind schlurfend und völlig lustlos durch die Gegend gelaufen.
