Great location, friendly staff.
Pros:

Fabulous central location, clean and reception staff were lovely and friendly. Great selection at Breakfast.

Cons:

Breakfast was very busy and tables sparse, one time I had to leave and come back. The outside pool area is too small and again slim chance of getting a sunbed. I also found it noisy, scraping chairs, banging doors etc, but I have sensitive hearing so this may not bother other people. The shower was naff, run from a tap attachment.

Beautiful breakfast and stunning terrace… location amazing… but pool area far too small and cramped.
Pros:

Great town location. Beautiful breakfast terrace and scrumptious food, stunning sea views. Great staff, nice reception area.

Cons:

Would chose a side view room next time as we faced the Somnia with absolutely no view at all. The pool area was far too small with not enough beds, very cramped and when sunny was hard to find a spot in the sun… as we are beach lovers it wasn’t such a big deal… but for some I can see this being an issue if you love the pool.

Some good aspects but not four star rooms.
Pros:

The location is central and good for the Port or bus. The breakfast was good and the staff were friendly. Shower pressure was also good and we found the firm bed comfortable.

Cons:

As mentioned in many of the reviews, the presentation of the public areas of the hotel (e.g. lobby, restaurant) differs vastly from the state of the rooms. The room was not four star quality. The bathroom was scruffy with lots of mould on the tiles and very old fixtures. The air con worked fairly well but pumped out an unpleasant smell that made the room smell damp. The walls/ceiling were also scruffy and had not been decorated for some time. There was no tea or coffee provided in the room but there was a kettle which is quite a strange thing to include. On the whole the room was just very depressing to be in.

It is clear that this hotel has been given a four star rating due to it ticking ‘facilities’ boxes such as a pool and a restaurant. It is not because the accommodation is four star quality. I would describe it as a low end three star room which, for around £200 per night, isn’t good value for money at all.

A very welcoming hotel.
Pros:

The staff were exceptionally helpful. My room was upgraded.
I had an accident the night before my arrival and everyone was very kind and considerate.
My room overlooked the marina, was spacious and clean. The bathroom was beautiful and spotlessly clean.
Breakfast was amazing, everything anyone could want. Continental, cereals, fruit, yoghurt and cooked breakfast items too.

Worst experience ever
Pros:

Location is good for exploring the center and getting to the airport, the breakfast terrace is nice overlooking the harbour

Cons:

Its two different hotels. The entrance and rooms in the front are renovated and new while the back of the hotel is a very old building, its dirty, loud and not even 2 star hotel. However, they charge an enormous price and if you are not lucky you end up in a outdated room ( and there are a lot of them, also in the basement) with mold in the bathroom, everything is broken, looking at a free public parking where there is parking and driving going on all night. I booked a room with inner courtyard view on purpose!, to avoid the noise from the streets, I got a room overlooking the huge parking (see photo) and they told me that it IS an inner courtyard view. Its false information on the website AND on booking. When we complained they told us there is no other room (only the same on different floor) and that it is an inner courtyard view. I have never, ever experienced such thing on Booking.com in more than 10 years. As we had our flight the next day (we stayed for one night), we could not change the hotel. We stayed in a noisy, completely outdated filthy room with a bathroom full of mold, the toilet seat was yellow, the bathtub shower was broken and we had to pay 260 Euro for one night. We complained at booking.com and did not get an anwer at all. Worst experience I ever had in a holiday. I rather stay in a 2 star Hotel, they are more honest.
