The hotel offers a mix of positives like a great modern bathroom with high-quality bed linen and friendly service, though the room was somewhat dusty and lacked bidet towels. The central location is a major advantage for exploring the town, and the dining experience, especially at the roof terrace, was fabulous. However, some rooms may not have ideal views or balcony options.

My stay at the hotel had its highs and lows. The location was amazing, offering a peaceful break with panoramic views of the coast, though the room was a bit dark and not as quiet as I had hoped. The service was mostly friendly and helpful, but there were some noise issues and a mix-up with dining arrangements. The dining experience had its moments but lacked consistency. Overall, a mixed experience with some great aspects and some room for improvement.
