This property was chosen for access to the airport. It was about 11 euros taxi ride, and very convenient. This is a working port town but a nice walk around the sea with a little beach. The hotel provides beach towels. We enjoyed the restaurant next door but there was one in the hotel and plenty of others surrounding the hotel. The staff was nice and the room was comfortable with a port view and balcony.

Hôtel bord de mer
C’est mon deuxième séjour au sein de cet hôtel et pour le prix très raisonnable je trouve cet hôtel vraiment très bien, j’y retournerai sans doute l’an prochain. Les arrêts de bus sont très proches. La chambre est spacieuse et propre , vue sur la mer imprenable, magnifique couché et levé de soleil. Petit déjeuner simple mais bon. Personnel très sympathique et accueillant. Vraiment rien à dire en négatif. Hôtel très très bien.

The balcony was unique. The room was spacious. The bed was uncomfortable. The shower screen was very rigid. The shower drain seemed a little clogged because water would gather in the tray. Breakfast menu was very limited. It would be very good to have some Halal food provisions too for breakfast so Muslim guests can also enjoy all the breakfast items on offer.

Hôtel sur la plage
Arrivée de nuit. Hôtel à 15 min de l'aéroport en taxi. Formalités rapides en anglais. Chambre spacieuse au 6e étage, propre, grand balcon avec vue remarquable sur la ville et la plage. Au niveau 0 restaurant avec accès direct sur la plage, très agréable le matin. A proximité des arrêts de bus et tous commerces.

Lovely new beach-side elevator building. Room was clean, modern, with a balcony overlooking the water and the nearby container ships. The sandy beach is literally steps away. The room was quiet. Public bus transportation goes almost to the doorstep. Staff is very friendly. There is a ground-level restaurant which offers a 10% discount to people who have a room in the hotel.

Watersedge is a nice clean hotel. Breakfast is good, Staff friendly. Food in restaurant is good, but is often busy and so can be a bit noisy. There are three other eating places within yards and another Angelinos across the park which is excellent. The bus stop is within yards of the hotel so access is easy and the buses reasonably punctual. The bay is sandy and water clean, the area pleasant and not too busy.
We have stayed at least three times now and will be booking again in the future.
