Décevant. La cote « Superbe » de Booking.com est trompeuse.
Cons:

La première chambre était sombre et avait une vue sur un espace en béton et une clôture (voir photo). La réception m’a dit que toutes les chambres avaient cette vue sauf les deux chambres donnant sur la piscine. Nous avons donc demandé à changer pour une chambre donnant sur la piscine. Mais la salle de bain était malpropre, il y avait de la moisissure dans la douche et autour de la toilette, le pommeau de douche n’était pas fonctionnel, l’équipement et le mobilier étaient défraîchis et les rideaux ne fermaient pas complètement. Une fenêtre de notre chambre était une voie d’aération vers la cuisine du restaurant: nous entendions le bruit des casseroles et sentions les odeurs de cuisine directement dans notre notre chambre. C’était désagréable. L’hôtel en général mériterait d’être mieux entretenu. Le personnel de la réception n’était pas sympathique. J’étais déçue de terminer mon voyage à cet hôtel. Son emplacement sur la plage ne suffit pas à faire fi de ces problèmes. Je ne le recommanderais pas.
