The staff is kind and helpful. The food is plentiful and tasty. From my room you could hear the noises of the kitchen so much that it woke me up.
The cleaning of the tables between the deckchairs was poor and many deckchairs on the terrace were broken.

Great location for beach and the bars and restaurants on the main *****. Good size rooms, lovely pool and quiet rooftop area for sunbathing and use of jacuzzi. Breakfast was great. Staff were always friendly and helpful. Hotel could do with rooms being redecorated as ours looked a little tired. Room could have done with tea/coffee making facilities also. We were here for 2 weeks and would definitely return here ☺️

Good value hotel just off the beach, only a few minutes walk from the pedestrian street, and variety of beach bars. Beware no lift and some rooms are on the second floor. Good breakfast and reasonable small menu dinner. Swimming pool is lined rather than tiled and could do with some attention. Pleasant staff.

Considering this was a budget break I was pleased with the hotel. The room was spacious with good (quiet) air con and comfy bed and a safe. Good WiFi across the whole hotel. It was clean and the breakfast perfectly acceptable and plentiful ( although recommend you breakfast by 9 am). Only issue we had was with lack of cutlery ( particularly spoons) and briefly no running water in our bathroom on 2 occasions. Pool was cold but no better/worse than usual. Poolside pleasantly shaded by banana and coconut trees. Hotel was well situated. I would use again.

I recently stayed at this hotel [26/2/25-5/3/25] and, despite unfavourable reviews found the hotel much to my satisfaction. The food, an abundant buffet breakfast, was terrific and so too was the evening meal although the selection of dishes on offer was minimal. My room was great but the TV did not work-no great hardship but something management should be aware of. The most girl staff looked and slinky in their dark denim uniform giving the hotel an understated but professional consistency. However it was touch and go as to whether there were any snacks available in the afternoon. There was "music" courtesy of a large bass speaker which seemed to go on and off on an ad hoc basis. If I had my way I'd get rid of it as I have not travelled all that way to listen to it. I would have liked to have seen an on site shop if only for suntan oil/toothpaste and water. Finally the hotel's website photos are way out of date and could do with being updated
