Great for a beach chill out.
Pros:

Location on beach

Cons:

Occasional drainy odour permeating the room. Coffee capsules didn’t fit the machine. Reception said they’d replace but didn’t.

Pros:

Zentrale, trotzdem ruhige Lage
Schöner Meerblick
Personal sehr freundlich

Cons:

- Austattung in die Jahre gekommen
- Feuchtigkeitsschäden im Bad
- Bett sehr unbequem, Kopfkissen fleckig
- Speisesaal keine schöne Ausstattung, keine Sitzmöglichkeit im Freien
- Frühstücksbuffet nicht ansprechend, entspricht eher nur 2 bis maximal 3 Sternen
- Handtuchverleih für Strand in einem angrenzenden Restaurant/Cafè, nicht sehr ansprechend und hygienisch, da die Handtücher einfach beim Essen aufbewahrt werden
- Zugang Innenpool durch Restaurant, absolut nicht ansprechend, nicht zu empfehlen, dort möchte niemand schwimmen

What we needed for a stag do.
Pros:

Close to the Old Town Square. On the beachfront

Cons:

Was old and needed a refurb. The smallest lifts I have ever seen.
Carpet where you eat breakfast must have been 50 years old and was extremely dated and dirty.

Vu extraordinaire, gens acceuillant, mais plage décevante pour la marche à cause des coquillages.
Pros:

Les déjeuners sont extra et le personnel très attentif, la propreté est très bien. Le hall est très spacieux et bien entretenue. Même les femmes de ménages sont attentives à nos besoins.

Cons:

aucun stationnement si tu vas en auto, la plage laisse à désirez car on ne peut pas prendre de marche vu la quantité de petit coquillage cassé, et il n'y a pas de place pour les gens de l'hotel sur la plage, on doit payé. La piscine nous a décu...., elle ne reflette pas les photos et c'est le seul endroit qui ne semblait pas être bien entretenue.

Pros:

The breakfast buffet was great, lots of choices, Location, right on the beach. It was cold during our stay so it was cold and windy on the beach side but we enjoyed the view.

Cons:

They could use a new updated elevator.
