Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The room was spotless, comfortable, and very quiet. The staff were polite, friendly, and always willing to help with anything we needed. The breakfast was rich and delicious, with plenty of options to suit all tastes. The location was ideal, close to the town center yet peaceful. We will definitely choose it again on our next visit!

Great value for money
Pros:

Very central to beach clubs and supermarkets. Bar and restaurant connected was very good with lovely staff and cheap prices. The staff was lovely, cleaning and housekeeping is on a very strict schedule so you have to leave the apartments at certain times to be cleaned. Great pool

Alles gut und Grüße an die super Rezeptionistin Mali, löst jedes Problem sofort
Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal!
Ausserhalb der Anlage alles leicht und schnell erreichbar, von Supermarkt bis unzähligen Restaurants, der Strand ist 10 Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen.

Cons:

Die Kochmöglichkeit ist echt etwas eingeschränkt, vorallem der Kühlschrank hat mich an den Rand des Wahnsinns gebracht, ließ sich nicht richtig schließen, nur mit roher Gewalt 😀

Perfect voor zonnebaden en feesten op de strip.
Pros:

De locatie van het hotel is perfect als je houdt van naar het strand te gaan en in de avond uit te gaan op maliastrip.
Kamer voldeed aan alles zeker gezien de prijs.
Interactie met de receptionist was leuk, zeer direct maar ook grappig.

Cons:

Niets maar verwacht geen grote luxe voor de prijs je betaalt.
Buren kunnen luidruchtig thuis komen na het uitgaan.

Pros:

Non avevamo la colazione che era comunque acquistabile ad un prezzo equo. La posizione era forse un po' lontana dalla spiaggia ma era comunque facile e piacevole arrivarci. Il contesto degli appartamenti è molto carino e avere il bar /ristorante interno con accesso diretto alle due piscine è molto confortevole.

Przyjemny pobyt, idealny dla młodych ze względu na bliskość barów i klubów.
Pros:

Bardzo dobra lokalizacja, tuż przy głównej ulicy. Na plus dwa baseny. Pani z recepcji przemiła, pomaga w wielu rzeczach, między innymi zamawianiu taxi. W całym hotelu bardzo czysto.

Cons:

Przydałby się remont pokojów. Najpierw trafiłyśmy na zepsute łóżko dostawione, obsługa szybko zmieniła nam pokój. W drugim na dostawionym łóżku był dodatkowy materac, dzięki któremu dało się na nim spać, ale nie był stabilny w nocy.
