Pretty hotel in a nice area. It’s close to lots of restaurants and within walking distance to one of the beaches. We love walking, so we even walked to the town center—but you can easily take a taxi if you prefer.

There were two staff members during my check-in. One was very efficient and the other did not want to be there. I sat waiting for breakfast for 20 min before someone came about asking whether my order had been taken. When informed that I had been there quite some time, he was unapologetic and mostly annoyed. I decided to leave and have breakfast elsewhere. If you want a clean nice looking place and to feel as a burden rather than a guest... This is the place for you.

The hotel is really nice and located in a fantastic area. For the price you pay it's definitely worth the stay here. The room was a decent size and everything was functional. Breakfast is included but we never made it in time. The staff are also incredible and very helpful. They are there 24/7 in case you have a late check in. I would definitely stay here again.

Amazing hotel & staff! Beautiful building & perfect location. Right opposite McDonald's & a fantastic party bus to pick us up on the corner. No iron in the room but a 2 minute walk from the beach so great for us. The only place we will stay on our next vist. No complaints at all.
