Spent 8 days here over the Christmas period. As a solo traveller it was perfect. Room was cleaned daily along with all the communal areas which were spotless. The heated pool and jacuzzi were amazing for a stay in December. Situated close to the beach/promenade. I was room only so cannot comment on food. A perfect stay. I will definitely return

The staff were lovely. The room was comfortable, light, and clean. The tv had English channels, which was great after a long day sight seeing. The shower was excellent. I can't comment on the restaurant, as it was closed for the week. However the hotel set out drinks and small breakfast pastries, which were tasty. It's an easy walk into the main town (if you use the lift, as the hill was steep!). Very good value for money.

Super Nice Hot

This is a super nice hotel. Great location within walking distance to the beach. Lovely pool, hot tubs and sauna. 3-4 really good restaurants adjacent to the hotel. Plus a bar in the lobby open until 11 pm. Excellent value.

This hotel is just excellent. The quirky decor is really unusual( even the skull shaped urinal in the gents). Thanks to the staff the place is spotless. Will more than likely be back.

Not such a good stay

Sadly we had to do our stay in 2 bookings as hotel was busy and our 1st room had a bad smell which I believe was from drainage , we had a view of the street with loud roadworks going on that was extremely noisy which was not told at time of booking 😥

Great hotel with good value for money in a quiet part of town. Only feedback is towels were very budget and the front desk could have been more helpful and friendly on a few occasions.
