cozy room great location malfunctioning air conditioning long queues
the room was super cozy. the location couldn't be better. you're literally steps from the beach and the marina. breakfast was a daily highlight fresh pastries and delicious coffee were available.
The malfunctioning air conditioning system in the room, was an issue, it left me to endure the noise from outside. Arriving a few minutes after opening resulted in long queues and a lack of available seating.

fantastic hotel, a MUST visit!

sea view housekeeping staff attentive staff
this hotel WOWED me with its top facilities. the premium sea view room offered amazing views. the housekeeping staff were quick, and maintained the rooms. i was impressed by the attentiveness shown by the staff, especially at the level lounge.
i found the noise levels from nearby functions INTRUSIVE, especifically the wedding. the music and chatter continued late at night. i was unable to relax on the balcony because of the disturbance. it was a minor inconvenience, but worth noting for others seeking tranquility.

easy access friendly staff early access
the location is great with easy access to the beach. i walked easily to many bars and restaurants. the staff was very kind and friendly at all times. i arrived early and they gave me towels for the pool while i waited.
the bedroom door made a loud squeak anytime it opened or closed. the balcony furniture and floor area was not clean. the internet was slow and kept disconnecting. there was no english channel available on the tv.
