Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Dessverre, men dette er knapt et to-stjerners hotell. Dårlig internett, veldig ubehagelige senger, møkkete og rotete i restaurant/frokostserveringen (hele tiden, alle tider til døgnet står det rester, gamle glass, søppel), de ansatte må få bedre opplæring. De aner ikke hva de driver med. Beliggenheten er OK, ikke på stranden, men like ved.
