Voltam már itt, tudtam mire számíthatok. Máskor is ide jövök, mert ár-érték arányban megfelelő.
Pros:

Bőséges volt a reggeli. Az ágymatrac nagyon kényelmes. Tetszett a praktikusan felszerelt teakonyha.
Gyönyörű panorámás kilátásunk volt a tizedik emeleten a városra, valamint az óceánra.

Cons:

A szobák ugyan felújítottak, de a hotel közös területeire, úgymint pl.a lift, ajtók és folyosók ráférne egy kis renoválás.
Lehetne sokkal több konnektor a szobákban.

Feels like a resort - in the wrong way
Pros:

Has a car park (extra cost)

Cons:

Room is much simpler than it looks on photos, reminded us of a school trip.
Room door is just fitting - you can see the hallways light at the bottom.
Breakfast is wide range but low quality.
Wellness was not open because of renovation - not marked on booking page.

Boa qualidade preço, com uma vista incrível para o mar.
Pros:

Tem uma ótima localização, e o espaço em si do studio era bom, faziam a limpeza/arrumavam o quarto todos os dias

Cons:

A limpeza não era incrível, havia alguma loiça da kitchen suja de gordura e a casa de banho tinha alguma sujidade na banheira e no vidro.

Good hotel with good location
Pros:

The hotel was excellent, especially the location.
The staff were wonderful, and the breakfasts were great. There is both an outdoor pool and an indoor one in the spa area. The jacuzzi deserves special praise — a real highlight. Overall, it’s a very good option for the price.

Cons:

there is quite a lot of renovation going on, including the hammam. The indoor pool was a bit cool, and parts of the hotel could use a refresh.


However, these are minor issues because the hotel’s atmosphere and the staff truly make up for everything.
