A perfect stay.
Pros:

The staff are really good, polite and friendly. The service is very good, the facilities are good, there's such a good vibe on the beach and in the local area which is a few minutes walk

The food in the hotel is delicious it's reasonably priced and has a great menu.
The hotel rooms are spacious and well equiped, I had a sea view room and i found it pleasent, there are mosquito nets on the bed, there is a fan and also AC. I found that just the fan was good enough without the need for AC.

Pros:

Blízko k pláži. Pokoj velký, koupelna OK.

Cons:

Pokoj směrem do ulice velmi hlučný. Balkon špinavý. Dveře na balkon nešly zamknout. Za tu cenu to nestálo.

Pros:

Huone on iso ja siisti. Kylpyhuone samoin. Kiva sijainti rannalla, riittävästi aurinkopetejä.

Cons:

Vedenpaine kylpyhuoneessa huono
Huone tielle, sieltä äänimaailma tuli sisälle, junat, autot, ravintolan musiikki.
Korjaustöitä hotellissa, kova meteli aamusta - iltapäivään.

Pros:

The location was good, everything was around. Staff was wonderful, very welcoming and helpful. Sea view room was very good, very specious, nice bathroom, and the view was breathtaking.

Cons:

The only thing would be better to refill tea and coffee sachets daily.

Bra läge, bra rum. Bra personal. För de priset man betalar för boendet så är frukosten katastrof
Pros:

Rummet var fantastisk, trevlig personal. Underbar solnedgång från balkongen!

Cons:

Frukosten var väldigt dålig. Väldigt lite att välja mellan. Var väldigt svårt att kommunicera med många av frukost personalen. Fanns en tjej som var duktig på engelska

Komfortabel ist es nicht
Pros:

Das Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen. Direkt am Strand. Wir hatten Zimmer mit Meerblick. Die Mitarbeiter sind freundlich. Frühstück A-la-Carte, war vollkommen okay. Die Strandliegen sind gemütlich eingerichtet. Allerdings ist der Strand nicht immer fürs Baden geeignet, große Wellen.

Cons:

Klimaanlage ist eine Katastrophe. Man erfriert im Zimmer und kann nicht steuern. Die pustet direkt aufs Bett, wie Flugzeug-Triebwerk. Man hat das Gefühl, im Kühlschrank zu schlafen. Der Mitarbeiter konnte auch nicht helfen. Mein Mann hat manuell die Lamellen zum Fenster ausgerichtet. Es gibt keinen Fahrstuhl. Wir haben Shock bekommen, als die ältere Dame unseren Koffer auf die vierte Etage hochbringen wollte. Das haben wir natürlich übernommen.
