6.8/10

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were bright and well-equipped with beautiful sea views, the service had its challenges due to events happening on-site that disrupted access for regular guests. The location is great with easy beach access, though the dining options could use improvement as the breakfast buffet was crowded and lacking variety. Overall, it has potential but needs to address some operational issues for a better stay.

The hotel has potential due to its great location near the beach, but it really needs a facelift. While the rooms are spacious and offer a lovely view, some aspects like the furnishings and amenities are quite dated and worn. The service can be slow, which adds to the overall experience not being as relaxing as expected. It's a great place for value if improvements are made, but currently, it feels like it's not reaching its full potential.

The rooms are spacious and clean with a lovely sea view, although the unpleasant smell was a bit off-putting. There are some facilities like a pool that I enjoyed, but the service was inconsistent and could use improvement. Dining options left a lot to be desired and didn't quite meet my expectations in terms of variety and quality.
