Many guests appreciate the spacious rooms, with some even featuring balconies and offering lovely sea views. The hotel's location is convenient, providing easy access to the beach and pier.

the room had a great size. i found a beautiful view of the coast. the room also had a fan since it was quite warm.

the fridge in the room did not work. the curtains were thin, so a lot of light came in the morning. there was rubbish under the bed.
