静かにサンセットを眺めて過ごす
Pros:

部屋からサンセットを見ることができる素晴らしいロケーションだった。岩場ではあるが、部屋を出ればすぐに海辺。ビーチへも歩いていくことができる。ホテルやレストランが乱立してる割には静かで、治安も良かった。レストランもお手頃価格でシーフードを堪能でき、満足することができた。

Cons:

道すがらに案内がないので、地図の通りに向かっていても、他のホテルの案内はあってもここのホテルの案内がないため、少し不安を感じた。ついたときは、見た目も素敵なホテルだったのでほっとした。

Ok, under forventet
Pros:

Beliggenhet, store rom, hyggelig personal

Cons:

Ustabilt internett og aircondition. Maur og mygg på rommet. Ble matforgiftet, sannsynligvis av maten fra hotellets restaurant (hadde kun spist der de foregående 36 timene før sykdom).

Decent location and amazing staff but the place needs to be renovated.
Pros:

The room was spacious and the pool area was lovely. The staff were amazing and couldn’t be more helpful.

Cons:

The pictures on booking.com are old. The place js pretty run down now and the “gym” was nothing like the pictures. It also states “beachfront” but you cannot access the beach as it is just dangerous rocks.

Pros:

Insgesamt schöner Aufenthalt mit zwei Pools mit toller Aussicht auf das Meer!

Cons:

Die Einrichtung im Hotel war abgesehen von der Lobby etwas veraltet. Das Fitness Studio hatte Schimmel an den Wänden und im Zimmer war die Balkontür nur sehr schwer zu öffnen.
