Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was simply delightful. The rooms were clean and tidy, although not quite up to 5-star standards. The service was top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff ready to assist. The location was perfect for exploring the area, although I would have preferred direct beach access. The dining options were unexpectedly delicious, but it would have been ideal if they were open longer at night. Overall, a great experience with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel's efficiency from the reception staff to the porter was impressive, ensuring clean and tidy rooms. However, the room quality fell slightly short of 5-star standards. Overall, our stay exceeded expectations.
Staying at the hotel was everything we hoped for and even more. The efficient reception staff and the porter who provided us with wet towels to freshen up before taking us to our room were fantastic. The rooms were very clean and tidy, but not quite what I would expect in terms of 5-star quality.
The hotel offers clean and tidy rooms but falls short of 5-star quality. The service is professional and helpful. The location is central and convenient but lacks space for the number of guests. The dining options are delicious with a great selection. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly staff and tasty dining choices, but room quality could be improved for a higher rating.
The hotel's location was not directly on the beach as I would have preferred, but it was fine, clean, and surrounded by lots of flowers and greenery. The rooms were clean and tidy, though not up to 5-star quality standards we expected. The service, from the efficient reception staff to the porter who provided us with wet towels, was fantastic. The dining experience offered unexpectedly delicious dishes with varied themes each day, and the facilities were top-notch.
