Great location nice room with kitchen room cleaned to perfection staff lovely only slight niggle the pool isn’t heated xx I like staying here great value for money x
Balcony overlooked paddle courts. Didn't need the aircon. Room needs an upgrade, ie painting, bidet cracked, flooring damaged and tiles missing on the balcony. But good size, clean and comfortable.

Good location
The hotel is well located. Close to the beach and the old town. It has parking and a pool and bar. The rooms are large but very dated and the bathroom is tiny.
The location and parking suited our purpose on this trip.
