The check-in was seamless, the room was comfortable while the breakfast was average.
Great location and very friendly staff
Booked a seaview room but initially given a loft. After complaining was upgraded to a lovely room. 2 friends were given complimentary dinner as no other rooms available
The hotel is in an excellent location.
The room is clean with a great view.
Amazing food
Friendly staff
Internet does not work. It almost does not exist. Even in the lobby I had to rely on my roaming service

The room was as advertised, however would have been better with a Queen sized bed instead of a Double bed. The view was wonderful and the room was spacious.
The breakfast was not the best and the pastries were hard (i.e. Not soft and fresh). The menu for dinner was not well advertised nor could be easily found without having to go downstairs to the restaurant, which was inconvenient.
The hotel location was safe and quiet. The hotel itself was modern witb a gym and pool, very clean and amenities. The staff were very curteous and friendly wirh prompt response. The breakfast is buffet with great and varied options. The spa..massage is something to definitely soak into
The hotel is family friendly, we stayed for a week and enjoyed it. We would go back in a heart beat!!
It offers an amazing experience at an affordable cost

I’ve stayed with you a few times now over the years. Overall, it’s very nice hotel - clean, great location. But, your cleaning staff in the mornings are incredibly loud in the hallways. No regard for guests that are on vacation and maybe trying to get a few minutes extra sleep. When asked to be a bit quieter, they just glance over and continue talking at a VERY high volume.
Very rude and disrespectful.
