"The hotel is in good condition and the reception is good. The room needs more storage space or shelves for luggage or belongings. The bathrooms lack of hooks or towel racks, and there's no place to dry clothes as we are near the beach. The breakfast is very acceptable."

"The apartmant was perfect. Clean, spacious . Close to the beach. My only issue was I havent seen any security cameras at the reception area and the cleaning staff often left the front door open for long periods to dry the floor. Unattended so anyone could have just gone inside I would stay again"

"Its a nice enough hotel, but even though it looks like its had a bit of paint and refurb the things like the elevator are a bit old and with noise coming from it a bit worrying, but its certified so will be good. Was supposed to have had water in the fridge but there wasn't any, asked and told cleaning would put it in the fridge next day, but it wasn't there the next day either, so went to the local supermarket and bought my own"
