fantastic stay with a view!
large selection quieter beach beautiful views quick taxi
Breakfast had a large selection of food and drinks. the location was superb. A quick walk took me to a quieter beach with a lovely café nearby. the town center was only a twenty-minute walk and had beautiful ocean views. the train station was also a twenty-minute walk or a short taxi ride.
The hotel looked to need maintenance. I noticed it especially in some areas of my room.

friendly team hot breakfast nice view small pool dirty terrace missing fridge
The hotel team members where really friendly and welcomed us good . The breakfast was cooked to order and came to the table hot and fresh. My room, room 215, had a very nice sea view with plenty of space for my needs.
The pool was very small and there was only a few tables on the terrace. The terrace area was also not very clean. My room did not have a fridge, this was not great for keeping drinks cool.

The outside pool was unheated, and that was a letdown (i really wanted a good swim). The jacuzzi was also out of action. I noticed damp marks on the walls. The hotel felt quite dated. The car park prices felt too high.
