Was ok, children did not like the fighting on the beach with the police, not safe at night.
Pros:

room was good size, clean,

Cons:

but it would be better if it had a fridge, and maybe aircon.

Pleasant hotel, nice staff, good location
Pros:

Pleasant room, a little bit worn, but comfortable. Clean with good towels. Friendly staff and good location. Also nice that there is a kettle, with tea and coffee, in the room and a water dispenser in the corridor.

Cons:

The second morning, we could not get any hot water in the shower. It worked fine the first day, but on the second day it barely got lukewarm.

Had a great stay as we used this hotel as a base and it was in the perfect location.
Pros:

Loved the location and especially the movie theme rooms. Will be coming back in August to make a YT video on this hotel. Carlinio9 as it was a pleasant nice stay. The price was good value too.😃 The staff were friendly.

Cons:

Low water pressure which couldn’t really be helped and basic if I was being picky.
Our room was above the patio and people outside were being noisy sitting out there which the hotel says only till 10PM.

Awful
Pros:

Nothing atall

Cons:

Awful manager. Boiling hot day and my uncle passed out and there was a que of people trying to check in but no one was coming to the reception for me or any other customer. Very rude once she did turn up and didn’t even offer a glass of water or a cool place for my uncle to sit. I had already paid over 100 pound upfront and to not be allowed somewhere quite and cool to sit and a glass of water for someone who was extremely poorly is disgusting. She offered a quiet place as the check in wasn’t until 3 but for an extra 30 pound. All we wanted was a cool place and some water….Do not go here, no compassion atall
