A Mixed Experience
The location is undoubtedly one of its best features—situated on a main road but surprisingly quiet. It's conveniently close to numerous bars and restaurants and just a short walk to the beach, making it an ideal spot for those wanting to explore the local area. The reception staff were always helpful and smiling, creating a welcoming atmosphere from the moment we arrived. The WiFi was reliable and fast, which was a pleasant surprise.The architecture of the hotel, however, has some design flaws. By mid-afternoon, the pool area is half in the shade due to the building's design. Additionally, the pool area can be very noisy, with unnecessarily loud music that detracts from the relaxing environment one might expect. The rooms, while small, are nicely decorated. However, the safe is inconveniently located under the fridge, requiring you to get on the floor to access it. This is particularly frustrating given the empty shelving above the fridge, which would have been a more practical spot. An irritating illuminated exit sign stays on 24 hours a day, which counteracts the effectiveness of the blackout drapes. Furthermore, the pillows were much too thick for my liking.The bathroom has a motion-activated extractor fan that seemed to turn on randomly without any movement, which was quite annoying. During my 3-night stay, the shower gel dispenser remained empty. I had my own toiletries. The Hotels.com advert stated free parking, but upon arrival, parking is on street, misleading.
