Guests say
Guests generally appreciated the hotel's excellent location, which is seen as a major advantage, especially being close to the seafront. Many praised the friendly and helpful service from the staff, making for a welcoming experience. However, multiple reviews noted significant issues with cleanliness and the outdated condition of the rooms and amenities. Some guests expressed disappointment about the disparity between the hotel's online images and the actual room appearance, indicating that the rooms were smaller and more worn down than expected. While some found good value for the price paid, concerns about the quality of breakfast and additional amenities were raised. Overall, it seems that while the hotel has its strengths in location and service, it requires urgent renovations and improvements to meet guest expectations.
