The hotel is located in a fantastic spot just a stone's throw away from the beach, so beach lovers will adore it. the rooms' cleanliness was top, notch and well, maintained, with helpful staff and simple, tasty breakfast to start the day. the bathroom was large, with excellent hot water supply, high, quality toiletries, and a spacious shower. the view from the room balcony was breathtaking, perfect for sunsets. the elevator made it easier to navigate the hotel and access rooms with bulky luggage.
The hotel lacks a swimming pool and poolside amenities for aquatic fun, seekers.

This hotel is a hidden gem right by the beach. You can practically step out of your room and dive into the sea. The rooms are exactly like in the pictures, with AC which was definitely needed with the heat. And the breakfast spread is absolutely delicious!
All was perfect, nothing to be improved.

The room was clean and modern, with all the necessary amenities. The balcony was also spacious and provided lovely views. The location was great, with easy access to both the beach and the main street. We also appreciated the friendly and helpful reception staff who were able to arrange an early check-in for us.
There were a few drawbacks to our stay. One of the major disappointments was the lack of a pool, which made it difficult to enjoy a swim during our city trip. Additionally, the hotel may be better suited for business trips rather than vacations as there were limited leisure activities provided. Lastly, we found that the room was a bit small for four people, which made it feel cramped and uncomfortable at times.
