Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were nice and quite new inside, but they lacked a bit of luxury in terms of towels and bedding. On the bright side, they were well-equipped with amenities like air con, mini fridge, and complimentary toiletries. The service was good overall, although some areas could use improvement. The location was excellent, being right by the beach and a short walk from the town center. The dining options were below expectations, offering limited and uninspiring choices. Despite some shortcomings, the facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
Staying at this hotel is like finding an oasis in a rural paradise. The rooms, while covered in fine wood dust in the morning, offer a large comfortable bed with medium thread count linen, a safe, a fridge, adjustable television, work station, and ample storage. However, there could be more electrical sockets for convenience.
