Liked: Cleanliness
I had a mixed experience during my stay at this hotel. The room had an old TV with only free-to-air channels available, and the air conditioning was quite weak, which made the room uncomfortable at times. The side view from my room was mostly blocked by a roof, so the sea view was only partially visible. I was also disappointed that the internet and parking were not free, considering the price of the stay. Additionally, there were no basic amenities such as dental kits in the bathroom. Another drawback was the noise from the pub downstairs, which made it difficult to sleep at night. The corridor carpet was also very worn and gave the hotel a dated feel. Overall, the hotel has potential, but several improvements are needed to make the stay more pleasant and comfortable.
