The hotel is in a very good location at the beach, but the condition of the room I got was terrible. It’s OK for me to stay only for one night. I arrived late at about 8 PM. The room was so old and there were many brown spots on the floors and walls. Initially, I thought it was not clean, but these were the things /stains that could not be cleaned with regular cleaning. The hotel staffs were nice. This hotel needs serious refurbishment, at least the room I stayed. it’s not worth for the money they charged.
Property was nice. Most staff was extremely polite and courteous. Just one evening muscular make receptionist was very rude to me in my opinion. And the last day of my stay there was extremely loud construction and banging early in the morning. Other than that, the stay was good. Applause to the breakfast and room cleaning staff!! A
Hôtel face à la mer, en cours de rénovation.
Très bien situé. Bons restaurants proches.
Chambre un peu vieillotte mais spacieuse, confortable, propre et bien agréable.
Bon petit-déjeuner.
Avons bien apprécié cet hébergement.
Hotel bem localizado. A noite a barraca de praia tem som alto. Melhor ficar nos quartos longe da vista da praia. Quartos recém reformados. Cama com colchão desconfortável. As meninas da limpeza super mal educadas. Batem na porta dizendo que se não limparem aquele horário não voltam.
Um bom hotel, de frente à praia, com muitas boas opções de restaurantes próximos. O hotel é antigo, está passando por reforma, mas nos atendeu muito bem. Staff atencioso e solícito. Bom café da manhã.
Boa localização, o café da manhã precisa melhorar.

Banheiro ruim.
Café da manhã muito bom, com variedade de pães, bolos e frutas. O quarto era confortável; porém, o banheiro estava com os metais corroídos pela maresia; revestimento bem feio no banheiro e uma impressão de sujeira, com rejuntes escuros e embolorados. O chuveiro era muito bom, com ótima pressão d'água para o banho.
Horrível, eu aluguei um quarto por um preço absurdo, e passei 3 dias com um barulho infernal de um condensador de ar, e além disso o quarto não tem visão nenhuma, uma janela de frente pra um muro, e outra coisa parece quarto de motel.
