Udsigten vinder, men......
Pros:

Udsigten og placeringen af hotellet

Cons:

Der er ikke udendørs pool som beskrevet‼️
Morgenmaden var meget begrænset i udvalg og 2 dage var der ikke mad nok til alle.
Der er køkken og spisepladser indrettet i et værelse ( morgenmadsbuffet), på størrelse med det vi boede i.
Badeværelset var meget slidt og beskidt‼️

We also had to pay more than what we actually needed to. Good food and staff. But it doesn’t have a pool it is an anothe
Pros:

It was close to the supermarket, beach and restaurants.
Doesn’t have a pool as it says. If you want to swim in the pool it’s another hotel. Clean rooms and hotel.

Cons:

The shower doesn’t have any curtain. Breakfast wasn’t very big.

a ne pas refaire
Pros:

la piscine est payant .
Les chambres sont en très sales état. 180€ pour 3 nuits, ca fait 60€/nuit. C'est cher pour la qualité des locaux.
Le parking est rocanbolesque, on vous déplace votre voiture sans vous avertir.
Note + , Le personnel est très gentil et appréciable, dévoués et à l'écoute. Mais ca ne sauvera pas l'état des bâtiments

Cons:

manque de propreté, vétuste, Mur qui s'éffrite , silicon de partout, tâches sur les draps et murs.
faux parking, ils entassent les voitures dans un mini garage et les bougent pour ressortir la vôtre .

Pros:

The hotel has a wonderful location right on the waterfront; from the balcony, you can see the sea and the beach is right there. The breakfast isn't exactly varied, but you certainly won't go hungry.

Cons:

The rooms were absolutely filthy—simply terrible. When we checked in, it was clear the only cleaning done was changing the bed linen and putting out fresh towels and shampoo. The table and nightstands were dirty, and the floor hadn't been swept or mopped at all; walking barefoot, you could feel sand and a lot of stray hair underfoot. The bathroom was indescribably dirty; the mirror hadn't been wiped down and was covered in water spots and other grime. It looked like there used to be shower stalls, but they were gone, making showering awkward—water splashed everywhere, leaving everything wet. The faucets were filthy and covered in heavy limescale. The towels, while laundered, were stained and looked very old; they were long overdue for replacement. In short, there was a complete lack of cleanliness. There is a pool nearby, but it turns out it belongs to another hotel and requires a separate fee. However, this hotel does provide a wristband for free use of beach loungers. Overall, it’s a very good hotel in a great location, but management really needs to address the staff, who are doing a very poor job.

Pernakvoti pakanka, bet ilgesniam laikui - netinka.
Pros:

Patiko vieta ir vaizdas į jūrą per langą. Patiko, kad suteikė parkavimo vietą požeminiame garaže po pastatu. Vieta labai gera - aplink daug parduotuvių, restoranų. Paplūdimys - vos už kelių metrų. Skėčiai ir gultai - nemokami.

Cons:

Tualetas labai mažas. Dušas be užuolaidėlės, todėl maudantis aptaškomas unitazas ir bidė. Dalis personalo nekalbėjo angliškai, tik itališkai. Kambaryje atsilupusi sienų apdaila - reiktų remonto.
