All staff were very good and cheerful. The bed room was simple, very clean and shower was also good. Wi-fi in the bedroom was very fast. Breakfast had a good selection and the inclusive evening meal was simple but good albeit of a limited selection. I would happily use this hotel again without any worries.

Near the port and airport

Self check-in late in the evening. The keys were ready as promised. Rooms were quiet and big enough for overnight stay. Breakfast had many alternatives and it was easy to find food for special diet.

Sufficient for a one night stay

Very convenient location, could walk to the airport. Dinner included, although we went out. They packed us a breakfast for the next day and booked us a taxi with a child seat to our friend's house. There were no options to buy food (apart from chips and lollies) outside of the dinner e.g earlier when we got there. The room was tiny and super hard to fit a cot inside and still be able to move around. There is no lift. The spas and sauna were not on.
