Reviews
The staff was always friendly and helpful, which made the stay even more pleasant. The breakfast was unfortunately not the best, but it was still okay and sufficient to start the day.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a good budget-friendly option in Larnaca.
I found it inconvenient that the hotel doesn't provide tissues or drinking water. The breakfast selection is limited; you can fill up, but it's not particularly good. What's more, the breakfast on the second day had significantly fewer options than on the first, which was quite surprising.
The best part is the retractable drying rack on the balcony, which is very practical.
I’ve stayed at two other facilities in Larnaca, both of which had significantly better reception staff. This hotel could benefit greatly from improving its front desk service.
Of the guests were noisy coming in at 1am, 3am from bus tours but the hotel can’t really help that. The hotel has a nice relaxing pool and the location is great to walk to the beach or old town.
Really enjoyed
