Central location. Receptionists communicated by texts immediately and had a solution for every problem. I met the friendly and very educated staff in the morning.

Breakfast was basic but very good, all you needed!

Natali Belgium

Perfect location. A short distance walk to the beach and very close to the shopping stores. Room is nice and clean and the staff/owners are great. Don’t worry about the birds noise, they will grow on you like it did to me 😁. Highly recommended.

Check-in system was nice. Covid-proof breakfast in the room was great in these awkward times. The best location, middle in the centre.

It is a really nice and calm hotel just some minutes from the beach away. The self-check in was working really nice and the rooms are clean and comfortable. I didn’t like the pictures in our rooms but that just a personal opinion. The owner of the hotel are really friendly and heartwarming.
