Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean and nicely presented rooms with lovely views but is in need of renovation. The service is top-notch, going above and beyond for a superb stay. The location is excellent, close to the old city and the beach. Dining was average, with some shortcomings in the experience.
The hotel offers beautiful rooms with amazing views, though they could benefit from more storage and a mirror by the power point. The service is exceptional, with a warm welcome and professional staff, but the additional cost for water is a downside. The location is conveniently situated near the old town and beach, providing a picturesque setting. The dining experience is lovely, managed by attentive and caring staff. Overall, a great choice for a stay.
