Awesome beach hotel

Located on the beach, the resort has all that a beach bum would desire............the flip side is that it's also on the road.............so traffic at night can be disturbing. It's neat, clean and has all the basic amenities for a comfortable stay!

Bra läge vid stranden

Trevlig och serviceinriktad personal, bra läge vid stranden och positivt med den fräscha poolen på taket. Vårt rum låg nära gatan vilket gjorde att trafiken var lite störande.

Nettes Hotel mit Strandzugang

Das Hotel ist sehr nett und liegt direkt am Strand. Das Personal sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Leider hat die Tiolettenspülung nicht immer einwandfrei funktioniert und für den Safe habe ich jedes Mal zirka zehn Anläufe gebraucht, um ihn aufzubekommen (ich habe natürlich jedes Mal den richtigen Code eingegeben). Ansonsten ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt.

Nice hotel, located at the beach

Comfortable room with airco. Mattress was a bit too hard, but NASA foam like tops were available. Simple dinner, meat or fish, but very good taste. Good service. No swimming pool, but located 20m distance from the sea with 26°C water temperature in December. No alcohol served, due to license, but they said this was only temporarily. Room service for the second day at least did not show up.
