Great location and walkable. Property could use a make over as dated. Rooms very tiny (studio) with minimal amenities. Old furniture and tile floors chipped in many areas. Location is only plus in my opinion.

Good location for a couple of nights

We stayed here for 2 nights and was in a prime location for what we wanted. Clean spacious room and great staff. The bar and pool area was nice. Compared to some of the four star hotels we have stayed in, this 3 star hotel is better.

Unfailingly polite and friendly staff. Would recommend the hotel were daily with maid service. Tea and coffee supplies in room appear ad hoc. Even budget hotels manage to keep supply on a daily basis. So a couple of minor carps, but overall a good hotel in a really good position with nearly all bases covered

You get what you pay for. Beware the Parking!

Served a purpose for us and we got what we paid for. Handy to the beach and restaurants. Disappointed with the parking situation as we booked it for that reason. Car park was full so had to park offsite for 25euro.

Good value

The hotel was just a few steps from the main beach and surrounded by restaurants and bars. The room itself was a decent size and had a small kitchen which was suitable for making snacks or small meals only.

Great location but noisy

Excellent location and breakfast. Lovely outside seating area. Very noisy later in the evening and early morning. Chairs on balcony and in room above. Spoilt what could have been a great stay.

Can't wait to go back

We love this apart-hotel. It's clean, well equipped and the staff are friendly and helpful. It has a small swimming pool and a terrace area at the back, each room has it's own balcony and they're spacious. Remember to bring washing up equipment with you

The room has an unbearable smell of cigarette that makes me feel really bad at the point that I can not sleep, and I am feeling really bad. I talked to the receptionist right after the check in and he said that he can not do anything to help us, and the fault is of the prior guest that smoked and it’s not his problem It’s disgusting
