    Very good
    7.0

    The sea view from my Standard Single Room was a definite highlight, providing a relaxing backdrop. The location near the beachfront made it easy to enjoy long walks along the coast.

    The entrance safety doors remained open throughout the night, which felt less secure. I was missing a hair dryer in my room, and the noise from housekeeping's early morning cleaning was disruptive. Breakfast had nice options, but the quality of the croissants was lacking. The bed was excessively soft, making it feel like the springs were working their way out from under me. My Superior Double Room turned out to be smaller than expected, and the shower had no pressure, lacking a shelf for toiletries, which led to a bit of a headache when using it.

    Solo traveler looking for peace

    I had a delightful experience. The breakfast lady really brought a smile to my mornings, serving up an adequate continental spread, and it was a pleasure to enjoy it with views of the sea outside.

    It wasn't inexpensive, but it felt fair for what I got.

    friendly staff
    check-in hiccup

    We had a great group trip! Windsurfing and fishing were highlights. The room was spacious and clean, with fantastic views of the sea. Location was perfect, just a short walk to the pier. Breakfast was lovely, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend staying here for a fun getaway with friends!

    Our experience was slightly affected by a check-in hiccup—arriving at the wrong address caused some frustration, as no one was available to assist us right away.

    Had a fantastic time! The superior double room was perfect with stunning sea views and a comfy bed. Proximity to the beach was a big plus, and I loved relaxing at the sunset in my chair. Free parking nearby is a sweet bonus for travelers.

    Felt very well looked after, no complaints whatsoever.

    Comfortable Stay with Scenic Views!

    Enjoyed one night in a delightful superior triple room with stunning sea views. The bathroom amenities were exceptional, adding a touch of luxury. Friendly staff provided thoughtful snacks in reception, which made our family feel welcomed. Be mindful of the stairs if traveling with less mobile guests!

    non-functional tv
    worn-out carpeting

    For a solo traveler, waking up to the sound of ocean waves and a stunning view made this small room a peaceful retreat. The staff were notably friendly. the receptionist provided a thorough breakfast explanation, and the kitchen staff engaged in a lovely conversation while serving coffee. the shower was simply a bath attachment needing an upgrade, and the TV was non-functional except for streaming. The main staircase deserves attention as its carpeting looks worn out.

    small room

    Loved the comfy room with a stunning sea view. The location is perfect for some peace and quiet, and it was super clean. Ideal for solo travelers like me, I felt right at home!

    But dearie, the room was a tad smaller than my handbag! I nearly needed a GPS to navigate around the furniture.
