Great location and the front desk was super helpful arranging a super early taxi for us.

Tracy United States of America

The building is situated very close to the city center with easy access wighin a walking distance to the main tourist attractions. The staff were very helpful, and the room was excellent (good size, air conditioning, hair dryer, TV etc.). They offer to clean your room everyday, and they do it to an excellent standard. Although the check in is at 3pm, if you arrive early they will safely keep your luggage. Similarly, if your flight is late in the day, you can also leave your luggage after checking out without extra charge.

The location is very convenient to the marina area and within easy walking distance to the train and bus stations. There are many restaurants of various price ranges in the area.

Ho United States of America

Excellent location to explore the old Town and marina, lots of cafes and restaurants within the walking distance. Great very helpful staff 24/7. Clean room. Huge private balcony (practically a terrace). Managed to do sunbathing every morning and early afternoon and we stayed here in March when the weather wasn't exactly suitable for the beach. 24 min easy walk to the mall. 5 min walk to the bus station. 8 min bus ride to the mall at €2.35 per person one way. 5 min to the ferry station (€3.50 per person return ticket) to go to the beach. Free wifi (good speed) everywhere in the hotel. Room cleaned, towels changed every day. Shutters on the balcony doors to keep the noise out and keep it dark in the room for better sleep. Bidet in the bathroom.
