The breakfast included a good variety, and i liked the location. It was very convenient. my room had large windows to look out to the beach from the breakfast room, what a plus.
The bar was missing things like draught beer. the meal times were rigid, and there was no choice regarding the time i could go in. It was quite inflexible.

I arrived for a 3-night stay and i must say the staff was fantastic, always smiling and very efficient! the rooms were very clean, and i had a double bed which was a nice surprise! the location was amazing. A bus stop right across the road provides easy access to the city center and the airport!
the rigid meal times were slightly inconvenient, offering no flexibility regarding when i could go in.
