Nettes Hotel um ein paar Tage zu verweilen
Pros:

Das Personal war sehr bemüht. Wir konnten einmal aufgrund einer Tour das gebucht Frühstück nicht konsumieren. Auf Anfrage erhielten wir einen Snack als Ausgleich. Der Pool mit Poolbar lädt zum Verweilen ein.

Cons:

Im Frühstücksraum ist es je nach Besucheranzahl etwas eng und laut. Einiges an der Anlage müsste überholt werden (zb Poolleiter, Toilette, Kasten, Lüftung). Da das Hotel anscheinend gern von Familien mit Kindern gebucht wird, kann es rund um den Pool bei Zeiten etwas lauter werden.

מלון נהדר במיקום מעולה
Pros:

מיקום מעולה, קרוב להכל ברגל, 2 דק מהחוף, חדרים ומיטות נוחות, ארוחת בוקר טובה

Cons:

וילונות שיאטמו מהאור בבוקר, כמה מדפים בחדר רחצה היו עוזרים

Pleasant
Pros:

The pool was great and the proximity to the beach and local restaurants was very good

Cons:

Unfortunately, this hotel didn’t live up to our expectations, especially considering the price. The rooms were very basic, the bathrooms were extremely small with no shelf space for personal items. There was a constant unpleasant smell coming from the shower, and the bathroom didn’t appear to be cleaned thoroughly. Even after the daily housekeeping, there was still soap scum left on the basin, which was disappointing. While the location may suit some travellers, we felt the overall experience didn’t justify the high price. There are likely better value options available with more comfortable facilities and attention to cleanliness.
