Nice large, updated room. Nice pool area. Staff very helpful and friendly. Close to supermarket and they ferry.
close to a bus stop, balcony
sticky floor, no comfortable kitchen
Everything was great, but one thing - I had to argue about changing the towels, additional shampoos, bath foams, and toilet paper! The linen was never changed (for the whole stay of 5 nights). It was a very disappointing argument for me.
This is a very lovely, simple hotel, with great staff. Maria deserves a shout out for going above and beyond with her customer service: thank you, Maria!
We didn’t have a car, and the busy road made walking to the local restaurants tricky. The wifi wasn’t brilliant, but I was told it’s bad in august as it’s a busy time there. The pool is Olympic size, so not brilliant for little ones unless they’re confident swimmers.
The establishment is quite beautiful, with a well kept pool, two parking lots and other amenities. The staff is friendly and warm. Good breakfast with lots of options.The only big problem is with the rooms. The windows and balcony doors are heavily outdated, as the equipment in the bathrooms, including the hair dryer and the shower cabin.

It was clean it was quiet and it was quite suitable. The gardens were lovely.
Unfortunately I made a mistake in booking this hotel since we didn't have a car and apparently we couldn't really walk to town a 3km. walk on busy street. The staff were not knowledgeable on tourist attractions and tours and bus routes. So this was a little disappointing.
Very good value for the money and the restaurant was surprisingly good. The dinner is good value and the chef really is surprisingly good.
The hotel was a bit farther out of the port area than I would have preferred and I do not drive so taking the bus which was regular but not super regular and I was a bit nervous about taking it at night because there is really no where to walk on the side of the very busy road. That said, the restaurant in the hotel was excellent so I ate there both nights.
Room, pool, and location: all excellent. The architecture of the residence structure is also excellent.Exquisite courtesy of the staff, both at the reception and in the dining room.
To be picky, the only small request would be to add a soap holder in the shower! Something negligible, of course, that didn't affect at all a wonderful stay.
