Stayed at this hotel for a little break for myself and my daughter. The hotel is fresh and clean and the majority of staff is friendly. Great location, 5 mins from the beach. And plenty of restaurants and bars close by. We stayed in the one bedroom apartment which is nice and spacious. The food is very hit and miss and with evening meal from 7.30pm it can almost feel like a bull pen. Forever queuing which is disappointing especially those with mobility issues and with children. The area is nice however going for A walk can be difficult considering their is a bike lane in the middle and you are forever dodging bikes so not very pedestrian friendly.

I was so nervous after reading some of the bad reviews but Ignore them all...those people clearly want 5 star in a 3 star hotel....do the bedrooms need updating?...yes...but the whole hotel was spotlessly clean and bed was so comfy, towels changed daily and room cleaned except a Wednesday when they have their day off...staff spot on, nice and friendly. The food was always lovely with plenty of choice and constantly replenished throughout meal times. Restaurant is small but very well organised...at tea time, if there was a queue, you were shown to your table so you sat at the correct sized table for your party, which worked really well. You paid 1 euro for your plastic cup at bar (we just kept hold of it til last night then you can get your euro back if you wish) then when needing a fresh drink your cup was changed too (this also stopped drinks and cups been left all over the place) when in Restaurant there were glasses and you helped yourself to lager and wine from the pumps and fizzy pop or tea/coffee and water. The snack bar is literally pastries left over from breakfast and sandwiches, which they leave on the bar for you to help yourself. On your last day they have a locked room to leave luggage, as need to vacate room at 11, and there is a room on 5th floor which is available to use if you need a quick shower, just ask at reception for towels. If you exited the hotel and turned left and went down 2 streets (2 minute walk if that) you were straight onto the beach front with plenty Restaurant's to choose from. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would return in the future.

1. Staff are so rude, unhelpful and no customer service skills 2. Food is hit or miss, we nicknamed it hotel slop 3. All the plates are dirty 4. There's not enough tables in restaurant but plenty of room for more 5. No allergen warnings... my daughter is sensitive to sesame and her lips completely blew up one dinner 6. Not enough sunloungers 7. No snacks included in all inclusive apart from a dry sandwich 8. The staff don't know their own rules, it's a €1 per cup for your drinks some said cash only some took card 9. My daughter used game room, won a toy in claw machine but it got stuck, no keys so had to get refunded instead! 10. Bath unusable as all cracked 11. No entertainment guide, entertainment is quite terrible! Nothing for kids For a cheap basic holiday it's ok but just ok! So much potential but staff don't seem to want to try to make it better than ok

The room was basic and we booked a superior room. Not really impressive so I wouldn’t have liked to have experienced a basic room. There wasn’t any storage for clothes or anything really. The walls are paper thin and if the room above flushed their toilet it was like you were there with them. We were in the annexe over the road which I thought was strange. The food in the dining room was some of the worst I’ve experienced at any hotel I’ve been before. What we had was ok there just wasn’t a lot of choice or variation. There was mainly fish and the occasional chicken or pork that also tasted of fish. My advise is if you want a cheap and cheerful holiday then book here but go self catering. If you want a better experience then get a better hotel

Good clean hotel , food was ok for an all inclusive . Brilliant staff and kevin made our holiday we was always laughing with him . Rooms lovely and have all you need , we had a family room. One bad thing is the noise when people come back from there nights out . But all in all a enjoyable holiday.
