    friendly staff
    fun activities
    great cocktails
    loud extractor fan

    Had a blast staying with friends! We loved hitting the beach and exploring the nearby parks. Great activities like outdoor art exhibitions and the kids' fun festival kept us entertained. The staff were super friendly, and the ambience was just what we needed. Remember to check out the rooftop bar for amazing cocktails!

    The only downside was the bathroom extractor fan—it was pretty loud when you turned on the light, which was a bit annoying.

    excellent food
    disappointed view
    intrusive tv activation

    The spacious Double Room provided a comfortable stay, complemented by the strong shower and daily housekeeping from friendly staff. Location was fantastic, with easy access to local amenities. While the food was excellent, including fresh local products, the surprise of an early morning TV activation felt intrusive.

    great location
    tired decor
    noisy environment

    The location shines bright. Just a short walk to the beach and close to the vibrant town. The room felt cozy upon entry, but the decor showed its age. Worn carpets and tired-looking furniture caught my eye. The staff impressed me with their friendliness, always smiling and quick to assist. Breakfast was decent, although a bit of a wait made it feel rushed. One major letdown was noise. the nightclub downstairs kept me up well past midnight with loud music and shouting in the corridors. Not ideal for light sleepers. The cleanliness overall was good, but maintenance upkeep needs improvement, especially with carpets and bathroom fixtures. A pleasant stay overall, but some time and attention are needed for updates.

    Perfect location and cozy vibes

    Had a really nice stay! The staff were super friendly, and the location was spot-on for the BIC and beach. The room was clean and comfy. There’s a bar with a killer happy hour! Only thing is parking is tricky. not a ton of spots available. But all in all, a good time!

    Great spot, but a bit noisy

    Nice place right across from the BIC, so super convenient for us! Check-in was a breeze. The room was big, though a bit dated, and the toilet was funky from the last guests. The breakfast was a highlight, especially the full English. Just wished the small TV was closer to the bed. Had a good time overall!
