Mediocre stay with SOME issues

limited breakfast

The breakfast selection was REALLY limited. I have seen better at similar hotels. My room was not properly cleaned on one day despite my explicit request. The kitchen was closed, so NO dinner was available at the hotel restaurant.

The room was spacious, and the kitchenette helped a lot with preparing snacks. It was VERY handy. I requested a cot, and it was already set up. This was so thoughtful. The staff was always friendly and available when needed.

The room above had air conditioning units running, and I heard a little noise.

this hotel has a good reception area and bar decoration. the family room was indeed very big with some nice decor. the breakfast included good choice and nice fresh pastries. a variety of cereals and hot dishes. the location was great because it was very close to the seaside , made the walk perfect.

the room had a rough paint around the edges and a low shower pressure. it also was quite hard to control the water temperature. a large puddle was left in the wet room style bathroom.

Acceptable Room, Some Issues Encountered

convenient locationlong check-in waitlimited food

The location was fairly convenient to local shops.

The room was not ready on arrival, and the wait at check-in was quite long. The room felt cramped with one side of the double bed pushed directly against a wall, forcing both guests to enter and exit the bed from the same side. The bar had no draught beer available. The restaurant was out of food. The staff was minimal.
