Pros:

The Location was great but the room was shabby and totally lacking in style or. Corinthians, I had breakfast on one of the 2 days I. Was there I asked for a couple of fryed eggs and coffee and I what a was given was unbelievable although I was booked in. For a breakfast they were not ready for me. or any guest who wanted. Somethings to eat. Then the fire alarm went off in the hotel about 10 30 pm the guest didn't know what was going on little explanation from anyone.the night staff who was doing his best to keep the situation under control he manged to stop the terrible noise then at 6 am the fire alarm went off again waking everyone up and having to to leave the hotel standing outside in the cold again no explanation later in the morning I asked a member of the staff why the alarm went off twice he give me a cock and bull story by saying. Someone might have been smoking in one of the rooms I think looks suspiciously like some kind of fuilty wiring I would never go back there again

Cons:

Lack of professionalism

Soggiorno 06 al 07 Settembre 2026
Pros:

Posizione splendida di fronte al mare, ma la scelta del carpete in un hotel sul mare è del tutto fuori luogo.

Ok
Cons:

Worth knowing that the music from downstairs causes the whole building to vibrate. Music stops at 11pm but you won’t want to be in the room in the evening before then.

Good location however dirty and scruffy room
Pros:

The breakfast was lovely and the staff friendly

Cons:

The room was tatty and dirty.
The window had to be shut and the curtains closed as it was next to a staircase that was next to the building and the public could look in to the room.
It was room 201.
The advertised photos were nothing like the room.
At the price they charged I would expect much much better

Bonne étape.
Pros:

Accueil chaleureux , en plein centre, le long du port.
Possibilité de souper sur place.

Cons:

On entend assez fort les bruits des clients dans les couloirs, et au-dessus. Ainsi que les bruits de la rue la nuit.
Petit-déjeuner à partir de 9.00: c’est beaucoup trop tard quand on veut visiter et qu’on est lève-tôt.
