9.0/10

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were a big bonus, spacious, and well-furnished with even a 'cooler' for drinks. The bathroom was gorgeous. The only downside was the limited space due to excessive furniture. The location was convenient, within easy walking distance to the beach.

The hotel offers a comfortable stay and good value for money. The rooms are clean and cozy, although some areas need updating. The service is generally helpful, but there were instances of rudeness from some staff. The location is excellent for both leisure and quietness. The dining options vary and are reasonably priced, but extra charges for children's meals can come as a surprise.

The hotel offers warm and acceptable rooms at excellent value for money. The service is dedicated to making guests' stay special, although some aspects like shower pressure were not ideal. The location, while in need of repairs, is in a quiet residential area with caring staff. The dining experience, though beautifully cooked, had some issues like cold food. The facilities would benefit from a revamp.
