Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a convenient location, right in the heart of town with easy access to shops, bars, and restaurants. The rooms are reasonably spacious and well equipped but lack a touch of luxury, especially with a tiny bathroom and a persistent humid smell at this time of year. The service provided is extremely pleasant and helpful, making my stay enjoyable, although some areas could be improved. The dining experience offers a wide choice of food and is plentiful, though the quality could be better. Overall, a decent value for money stay with a cozy atmosphere and efficient service.
I must say, this hotel is right in the heart of the old town, with a lovely view of the sea and just a stone's throw from the main square. The rooms, although lacking a balcony, were spacious, clean, and offered plenty of storage, even though being next to the lift brought a bit of noise. The service was overall good but a bit hit-and-miss with some staff being delightful while others seemed preoccupied. The restaurant, while not outstanding, was decent in terms of costs. The location couldn't be better for exploring the town, but do watch out for the occasional noise from the nearby football ground.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was a disappointment, feeling outdated and cramped, but the service was exceptional. The central location was convenient, and the dining experience offered a good variety. The facilities were basic, but overall it was a decent stay.
