Good hotel, tastefully renovated a couple of years ago. The location is very good, in front of the beach and relatively close to the town. Very good attention from all the staff, a lot of friendliness. Fair buffet breakfast, but of quality. Pool and solarium area very small and long, but they can't do much more due to lack of space. I don't see it as four stars, since it needs to offer any more service, to be honest, and the price of the night seemed a little expensive for these dates.

It is a hotel that has the minimum essential to have 4*. Small room. There is only one chair for 2 (For a vacation hotel, it is not logical). The refrigerator next to the head of the bed, built into the nightstand, is also not logical. The employees are very friendly and helpful. The food is simply good. I had an incident with the room the day after arriving at the hotel. When we returned to the hotel in the afternoon, we found our room open and with the lock latch pulled out to prevent the door from closing (or rather as a signal for the thief on duty). I reported the incident to the reception and the only thing I got was an apology but without reporting or recording the incident in the hotel diary. Fortunately we had our valuables with us.

This hotel has been totally renovated. It is now a modern new classy hotel. Directly across from the beach and less than 1km to the old town we were delighted to find this gem of a hotel for a reasonable price. The new restaurant and bar have both indoor and outdoor dining. The staff is super easy to deal with and speak English. Frosted glass walls separate the bathroom where you will find a walk in shower. Our room has a balcony with a view of the Mediterranean Sea. A desk, refrigerator and wet bar are also included. Because our train wasn’t until 4:30pm we were offered a 3pm check out time complimentary. Will be back next time in town.

Air-conditioning and cleaning services daily for all hotel rooms. The food served is fantastic even if there aren't many options (buffet breakfast is very nice) and staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel needs a renovation but due to its close proximity to the beach it's a great choice!!
31.12.2021 Angel
Friendliness, cleanliness, unbeatable location. The buffet for breakfast is excellent. Modern furniture and decoration, ... perhaps a few drawers to store the small things of the day to day would avoid opening suitcases or the closet. Overall it deserves an A grade. It is worth coming back especially outside of the high seasons.

TO START I WILL TELL YOU THAT THE CLEANING OF THE HOTEL IS EXQUISITE. AS WE LIKE IT. THE STAFF VERY EDUCATED AND FRIENDLY.
