Enjoyed my stay,but being on the first floor with a view of the neighbouring apartment block was a little disappointing.
Also the bar wasn’t open and breakfast served at the restaurant over the road was a hit or miss.

Does job for just a bedroom and shower..
Friendly staff during stay but if you value comfort then it's not for you. I wish we'd stayed elsewhere - walls paper thin, doors all slam closed, beds rock solid. Also nearly tripped down the step from the bathroom, who designed that? Parking also very difficult - 500m away lucky to get road side parking or free parking. Sea view, barely.
If you're just after a bedroom and shower then it does the job. If you value some comfort and noise suppression, look elsewhere.

It's a very simple hotel. The rooms are functional and clean. Breakfast is served across the street with a stunning view of the bay. The staff is very helpful.The pool was OK. It's OK for a short stay.

Disappointingly below promise.
Website is overly complimentary as to the size and location of the pool and general condition of the hotel which was very tired with poor facilities with the room. Staff worked hard within limitations of the building.

Stayed in August 2025
It served a purpose …..badly needs to be modernised and painted! The location was ideal and as a solo traveller it was a quiet location and suited my needs.
The room was single occupancy with a sea view, only view I had was a little bit of sea and a block of apartments which I could see straight into..
Twin beds in the room which was very uncomfortable even thought it stated there was a double bed for single occupancy!
Breakfast across the road was terrible and the steps down to it were filthy.
The pool area could do with a good clean up.
Only staff I saw was one on reception, one cleaner plus 2 in the breakfast area!
No problems with the air con, plenty hot water and fresh towels!

Extremly loud starting at 6 am daily. Nothing was as advertized. Food was at a resturant across the street. It was limited to nasty finger bar food. Breakfast was good.

Very basic
Very basic, the room is a concrete box with poor quality windows. The business model is based on offering cheap rooms to people who later on wished they spent more money on hotel when it’s too late

Good view
Nice view from the 5th floor sea view rooms with a useful balcony.
The hotel is a bit old and the comfort is not very high.
We were satisfied but will probably find another place if we return again.

Clean and tidy
Stayed here as most hotels closed for the season. Room was clean, aircon/heating unit a bit noisy. Bathroom clean with plenty of towels. Breakfast served across the street was fair. Everything you would expect from a 3 star out of season.

Nothing unique about this property as we stayed out of season but was clean and staff polite. Very quiet area. We had our breakfast in the restaurant across the street. Wi-fi internet very very slow so useless.
