Pros:

Der Empfang an der Reception war nett und speditiv.
Das Hotel ist direkt am Meer gelegen und verfügt über einen schönen Pool.
Ein weiterer Pluspunkt war die grosse Parkplatz Anlage direkt beim Hotel.

Cons:

Unfreundliches und unmotiviertes Personal. Wir waren froh, im Restaurant beim Pool eine Bestellung aufgeben zu dürfen, das Essen war ok aber die Küche schien auch nicht den besten Tag gehabt zu haben. Auch das Frühstück am nächsten Morgen zeigte leider wieder Personal, welches gefühlt nur darauf wartete, dass die Schicht endlich vorbei war und die Gäste 'verschwinden'.
Sehr schade, denn der sehr grosse und lieblose, wohl auf grosse Gruppen ausgerichtete Speisesaal und das ebenso dürftige Angebot machte keinen guten Eindruck. Als ich um 10.05h noch einen Kaffee und ein Glas Wasser holen wollte, waren alle Stationen bereits abgeräumt. Auf einen 2. Kaffee musste ich verzichten, immerhin konnte ich die Dame überzeugen, mir noch ein Glas Zitronenwasser einzuschenken.
Das Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen und benötigt dringend eine Auffrischung, sowohl in der Einrichtung und Ausstattung. Dann wäre vielleicht auch das Personal motivierter dort zu arbeiten.
Für eine Nacht war es OK, länger würde ich mich dort nicht aufhalten wollen.
