I arrived at the hotel with really high expectations after reading the reviews on here. I was slightly disappointed. The hotel looks very unimpressive when you arrive at the main entrance, I queried with the taxi driver were we at the right place. Once inside it has a different feel to it. The man on reception was helpful and we had our luggage taken to our room. We stayed in a classic room which had 2 single beds ( not our first choice but was all that was left when we booked). The room looked outdated, and was very basic. The bathroom had shower gel in there but no shampoo or conditioner etc which I thought was unusual and had to buy these in the town. The toilet seat was wonky, and a smell of sewers was regularly present. The room needed a makeover. The air con worked really well, there was only a sheet on the bed and we were frozen but found some blankets in the wardrobe which we kept on our bed all wk. The room was cleaned every day with new towels. Beds were comfy. The restaurant was good, food was varied but my biggest complaint is that a lot of the food especially in the salad and dessert area isn’t labelled so you have no idea what you’re eating- no good for people with food intolerance issues. The drinks are extra and expensive. The staff generally are really friendly just one who stood out as very unfriendly was the short dumpy grey haired waiter who remained miserable the whole of our stay. The sun beds by the pool are comfortable but a lot of the other ones scattered around are very uncomfortable as they don’t have the mattress on top. Most of the sun beds were gone by 8.30 in the morning so you need to get up to find a decent one. The hotel is opposite the beach and you have to pay for sun beds unless you’re all inclusive. 10 euros for a bed and umbrella. The sea was lovely and clear and not too cold for October. The hotel is a few minutes walk to the shops and restaurants, so is ideally located. The evening entertainment was good but we never managed to get a table outside as it was so busy so had to sit inside which was stuffy and you were unable to see what was going on. Overall we did enjoy our holiday, the weather was fantastic and we enjoyed being by the sea- never used the pool. I would recommend the hotel but if you can pay more for a better room then I would definitely recommend you do so.
