Excellent location right in the middle of everything. Down the hill to the beach and up the hill to the shops, bars, restaurants and train station. Room was very spacious and clean and the ensuite a decent size with excellent shower. The gardens and pools are lovely and the pool bar is very reasonably priced. Friendly staff. Restaurant is nice 10 euros for all you can eat breakfast well worth it

Nice hotel, good cheap option, woke up by the police banging on a door in the corridor at 630am, but can’t blame the hotel. Stay here a few times a year as the rooms facing the pool get the sun all afternoon so it’s nice to sit on the balcony, prefer block B as seems quieter, but a good staff overall.

The room service was lacking the staff would not provide clean mugs or refresh tea and coffee facilities, nor would they refresh the soap bar for handwashing.
The rooms were not sound proof at all could hear people in the next room, could hear hallway conversations and the doors banging 5 doors down.
The hotel does have free parking but the frer section is small and at the front of the hotel, the large side carpark is paid at €10 a night.
Beds are firm but comfortable.
Did not use the pool so cannot comment.
Overall a basic clean hotel but could do with some improvements.

Room requested high floor, away from lift was given, good afternoon sun on balcony, bed comfortable, felt the bedroom floor could do with a good wash as foot got dirty when out of the shower, but I like the hotel, it’s in a good location, and good value for money, if was open all year around would stay here all the time.
