De binnenkomst is prachtig. De kamers keurig schoon en het personeel erg vriendelijk. Als ik 1 negatief ding moet noemen is dat naast het hotel een grote scheeps container opslag is maar het hotel ligt ook zeer centraal met het centrum op 5 minuten lopen met diverse winkels en restaurants. Naast het hotel zit een bioscoop leuk voor in de avond. En wat echt benoemd moet worden is het fantastische ontbijt. Zo enorm uitgebreid echt ongezien. We hebben genoten en dit is dan ook echt een aanrader!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I didn’t like the bed it was so uncomfortable and the bathroom was old and the shower water was not good because it was giving cold and hot water at the same time. One of the rooms we had was only for two people when we we had booked for 3 so it was without bed for kids. We was told that the room had sea view but it was not quite enough. The sea was far away and the view was not clear like in the picture.
