geschikt voor een kort verblijf, maar het is niet schoon. Stranden in de buurt zijn sterk vervuilt
Pros:

Ontbijt eenzijdig, omelet of roerei, koffie en fruitdrank.

Cons:

Het hotel is vuil, er is achterstallig onderhoud, veel faciliteiten zijn er, maar wasbak, douchekop alles hangt los of werkt maar half. Maar personeel aan de receptie maakt een hoop goed speciaal "Louis" is een topper en spant zich echt voor je in om te zorgen dat je vragen worden ingevuld.
Volgens mij zijn ze bezig om een aantal kamers te vernieuwen of te verbouwen.
