The hotel was tired and dirty. Damp patches on the walls, almost the worst shower we hade experienced although the water was hot if one waited long enough. The bar was always shut and the restaurant not open at lunch and dinner times. Worst was when we asked for a taxi to the airport the receptionist arranged for someone she knew who took us in an old car that should not have been on the road. Never again!

We stayed a total of 8 days. The hotel is basic but that is to be expected with the price. We did not get clean towels until the day before we were to check out. The front desk kept saying they were coming but they never arrived. For a family of 6 with teenagers this proved to be a big problem. Housekeeping is only every other day. The reviews about the bathroom window venting into the hallway were so accurate. You could hear everything. We ended up hanging up one of the few towels we had. Other wise people could just walk by and push open the window slats.

Very poor reception service. I booked a Deluxe room but was given a sub-standard room. After complaining, I was moved to another equally poor room. Only after asking for the Manager did anything happen—then I was told to wait. After waiting over an hour, I finally received the Deluxe room I originally paid for. The front desk staff were disengaged and more focused on their phones and paperwork than on guests. Management needs to seriously investigate what’s happening at reception, as the situation felt highly unprofessional and questionable. Owners should take note and address this immediately.

This is a very tired and dirty hotel. The first room we were given, the toilet had not been flushed or cleaned. We were given a different room on the 4th floor and had to lug our heavy cases up the stairs. In the morning a different member of staff told us that there is a lift at the other end of the building. The breakfast was not very appetising and although you could get an omelette made the cook would not do fried eggs. Not a pleasant stay.

Check in was busy with a bit of a wait. Rooms are nice but a bit tired. They are clean but floors could use a good scrub in the bathroom. Basics are provided. No blankets just a top sheet for those who like cool room with covers. Breakfast is great, pool are is great and beach area is beautiful. Drinks are inexpensive but small. Staff are kind

Breakfast did not have healthy options. Nothing dairy free or gluten free options. Omelettes were poorly down, on a grill in oil. Only options were onions and cheese to add. Fruits were mostly from cans; pears and peaches. Refilling of fresh fruits took forever or never came. No decafinated teas or coffees

The reality falls far below expectations. The rooms look nothing like the reference images; the bathroom was completely grimy, and overall cleanliness was very poor. There were construction materials scattered throughout the hallways, and we had to request housekeeping because they never came on their own. The staff could greatly improve their customer service. It’s not just about providing the required information, but doing so with a positive attitude and willingness to help. With the exception of the woman who assisted us in arranging training packages, the rest of the staff was generally apathetic and not very willing to provide the information we needed. Honestly, I would not recommend this hotel.
