"I liked The hotel. Small and right on the sea..friendly staff and in a good location."

"Service was excellent and staff were wonderful… food quality was great. "

"We were supposed to spend 3days . We got there around 2pm couldn’t check in until 4 almost 5pm . They gave us a room without a blanket and no tv . Concierge doesn’t speak English at all and there two Russian guest who were arguing about the wait time to check in . There was mold in the bathroom . Im not sending this review because I had issues with anybody’s .but I’m warning you . There are better hotels in that area but this one is not good .we decided to check out the next day and change our flight ticket because we deemed unsafe to stay there ."

"We were given a terrible room that smelled of sewer and mildew. We had booked the hotel two months in advance but we were told 'we checked in too late' that day (6:30 pm) so no other room was available. It was also extremely loud right by the playground. Next day they gave us a better room. As we were waiting for a new room to be available while guests were checking out, there were at least two other guests at the front desk asking their rooms to be changed and they were told 'the hotel is full' The food is mediocre, average at best. We ate out two nights at local restaurants. The pool is nice, but it is almost impossible to get a beach chair around the pool. At 8 am there was nothing, so I am not sure what time people come for these chairs. The beach is great. The water is beautiful. Mostly sandy though some rocks when you first get in the water. I used water shoes. Beach chair situation is not as bad, you can get a chair if you go at 8-8:30 and put your towels on your chair. Hotel gives towels from the spa but they only take dirty towels in the evening to give you clean towels so if you go in the morning to get a fresh towel you are out of luck. I bought our own towels from a local store. Also, one of our hotel towels got stolen on the beach and I had to pay for it during check out. Best part of the hotel is location. It is literally in the town which is wonderful to walk around especially in the evening. Shopping/dining and local cultural experience is great."

"Nice property although the beach is not very clean as it was full of sea weed and also the staff was very uptight about eating food freely in different locations around the hotel so it makes you feel very restricted and uptight at times as you feel you can only have a snack in a designated location rather than by your side at the pool for example!
