Reviews and Ratings
I had a good stay overall at this hotel. The location is absolutely beautiful, and the manager was very accommodating. The rooms were comfortable with a well-situated balcony, but there were some drawbacks like light coming in from the bathroom due to the lack of a door. The dining experience was a letdown, but the service staff made up for some of that with their helpfulness. It’s definitely a charming place, but it could use some small improvements.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is superb, making it super easy to get to the town and nearby beach, and the rooms have beautiful views and lots of natural light. However, the room I stayed in had a strong smell of humidity, which was quite unpleasant. The service was friendly and accommodating, though, which made up for some issues. Overall, it offers great potential but needs a bit of improvement in certain areas.
The hotel has a superb location, almost on the promenade and just a short walk to the historic center. The rooms overall are quite nice, but I found mine a bit lacking in natural light since it was in the basement. The staff members were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially at the reception. However, I was disappointed with the breakfast options, which did not meet my expectations for such a lovely hotel. Overall, it's a charming place that I would recommend, but be prepared for some minor drawbacks.
The hotel has a great location, providing easy access to the town and the main beach. The rooms are bright with good views, though they could use some maintenance. The staff were friendly and helpful, but the breakfast experience left something to be desired. Overall, I found it to be a decent stay, but there are definitely areas for improvement.
I had a lovely stay at this charming hotel with beautiful interior design and a great location close to town and the beach. The staff was friendly and professional, which really added to the experience. However, the breakfast left much to be desired and could definitely be improved. Plus, while the deluxe suite was beautifully designed, it lacked a view since it was located in the basement. Overall, I felt it was a good value for money despite the few drawbacks.
