We were slightly underwhelmed with this hotel. Felt a bit like a cruise ship for elderly people. The amenities were sparse to say the least. The rooms felt outdated. The room was clean tho, the staff was pleasant and the breakfast was very good.

Charter touristy hotel

If you sleep on the floor at home without pillows and used to coffee powder for breakfast, then you will find this hotel more comfortable and enjoy the breakfast buffet despite the watery juices mostly day old bread. Very charter touristy overall.
