Minunat
Pros:

Pentru noi o pereche de pensionari a fost perfect
Cu curat,liniște,piscină cu o apă minunată
Locație retrasă la periferia stațiunii departe de agitația ei

Interesanta
Pros:

Interesantais viesnīcas dizains. Palikām vienu nakti, tādēļ baseinu neizmēģinājām. Uz jūru bija jāpaiet kādus 400m. Jo pie pašas viesnīcas neatradām,kā noiet pie jūras.
