Everything was perfect. Access to the beach, wonderful walking/biking path, quiet, easy access to restaurants and shopping. The large pool is heated - how great is that? Clean rooms, friendly staff. This is the second time we visited and the hotel appears empty - very few guests. It's great for us but how do you stay in business?

This is a great property with friendly staff, excellent bar and restaurant, and great beach front amenities. It’s a little more laid back than some of the nearby hotels and was exactly what is needed for a recharge.

Staff was very nice and quite helpful. However, the room is dated, the bed is unstable and the electrical outlets are either non-functional or a hazard to use. The floor to the bathroom is a trip hazard. I understand European style hotel, but some of these issues are safety concerns.
Thanks
