Categories

Cleanliness
6.6
Multiple reviews mention average/poor cleanliness: rooms and bathrooms described as 'not very clean', 'mérite un bon coup de neuf', 'potřebovali větší úklid', and staff had to re-clean a room—clear negative sentiment on cleanliness.
Service
8.9
Service is frequently praised: friendly, helpful owners and reception staff who accommodated requests and improved rooms; some notes about limited English and one serious communication failure after a lost backpack—overall positive but mixed.
Location
9.3
Location repeatedly highlighted as very central/convenient for restaurants, buses, boats and beaches; consistently strong positive sentiment on location and proximity to amenities.
Room Quality
7.4
Room quality is mixed: several mentions of old, worn or not-as-advertised rooms, broken wardrobe, and average comfort; a number of guests however report spacious or clean rooms—overall slightly below average.
Amenities
8.2
Amenities generally functional: working air-conditioning, buffet breakfast, scooter rental and laundry service available; some issues reported (loose power sockets, shower cleaning) so amenities are good but not perfect.
Value for Money
9
Strong positive sentiment about value: multiple reviewers call it economical, 'value for money' and a good budget choice—clear strength for this property.
Food and Beverage
9.1
Breakfast/buffet is frequently praised as varied, delicious and a highlight; one report of breakfast being sparse at 8am is an outlier but overall food and beverage sentiment is very positive.
Overall Experience
8.7
General impression: good option for short/budget stays with excellent location, friendly staff and great breakfast; drawbacks (cleanliness, older rooms, occasional service lapses) make it less ideal for long stays.
