Pros:

El trato del personal, la cercania a la playa y la tranquilidad. El desayuno correcto, el restaurante poco variado pero muy bueno el plato que probamos. Ofrecian cafe y te gratuito todo el dia y el servicio de limpieza bueno Tambien destacar que se preocupan de llevarte del embarcadero al hotel y te ofrecen tours sin ser agobiantes.

Cons:

En generl nada, calidad precio correcto, instalaciones basicas pero acordes a su precio.

Pros:

Alles

Cons:

Absoluut geen 2 sterrenhotel als je het mij vraagt, ziet er totaal anders uit dan op de foto's zeer verouderd en schimmel tegen de muur van kamer. De weg er naar toe zand. Eerder hostel dan een hotel.
