There was zero service. We saw no staff for the length of our stay. reception was closed throughout. Although breakfast is advertised as starting at 8am, when we arrived at the property and checked this we found out that breakfast had to be booked by 5pm the previous day. This was written in small type on a 'welcome' note. So no breakfast. The photos & description of the property imply that it is close to the beach. It isn't! Its at least 1/2 mile away across a busy road.

Nice, but some things coupd be improved.

Well situated modern hotel, friendly, helpful receptionist. Perhaps too few customer facing staff. The natural pool is a good idea, but it is unsafe because the surfaces are smooth and the algae makes them very slippery. Children must be closely supervised and adults must also be careful. The surfaces shouod be redone with a rough material to improve safety. The submerged sitting bench encourages children walk on it, but it js slippery and next to a sharp concrete edge. I am surprised this passed safety inspection. Also the key fob locked gate entry and exit to the pool area is inconvenient and perhaps unsafe. You cant get out without the fob. Similarly, the car parking key fob must be handed in at checkout before the car is driven out of the carpark, so one must blow the horn and hope someone opens the gate eventually. There was no table on the balcony of any of the rooms for some unknown reason. But all in all, We had a good time.

Goed en fijn appartement. Enige nadeel: het balkon voorzien van een open systeem, waardoor de bovenburen hun smerige rommel naar beneden gooide. Ook het water op het meubilair, na regenbui werd bij ons op het balkon gegooid, waardoor ons ontbijt de prullenbak in kon. Verder prima!

Lita inte på bilderna. Gammalt och slitet och absolut inte värt pengarna. Köket är riktigt slitet och möblerna likaså. Sängarna är OK men allt annat är bara dåligt tyvärr. Välj inte det här hotellet.

Wij waren er twee dagen voor het event LongCourseWeekend in Nieuwpoort! verschikkelijk om dan te moeten vernemen dat er geen warm water is! probleem werd niet opgelost tot volgende ochtend. Dus na een intense sportdag niet kunnen douchen en wassen. En de receptie die in dergelijke situaties geen 24u permanentie voorziet begrijp ik niet. Nog nooit zo iets meegemaakt.

Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Leider hat uns das Zimmer insgesamt nicht ganz überzeugt. Sehr spartanisch eingerichtet, ein paar Bilder mehr hätten den weißen Wänden gut getan. Küche ist vorhanden aber es fehlt z.B ein Geschirrtuch. Da leider keine Klimaanlage vorhanden ist, ist man auf ein offenes Fenster für frische Luft angewiesen, warum verbaut man bei den 4 Fenstern hier nicht 1x mit fliegengitter ? Wäre aus unserer Sicht besser. Ebenfalls gibt es keinen konkreten Zimmerservice, was meiner Meinung automatisch enthalten sein sollte. Die Wände scheinen sehr dünn zu sein, weshalb es sehr hellhörig ist. Was vielleicht noch wichtig ist, zwischen 12 und 13 Uhr gibt es eine einstündige Pause, das sollte man bei Anreise ebenfalls berücksichtigen. (Checkin ab 15 Uhr) Insgesamt ist das Hotel aber modernisiert worden und die Lobby sieht wirklich klasse aus. Wir können das Hotel nur bedingt empfehlen. Das Frühstück für 20€ pro Person haben wir nicht getestet.
