Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located within walking distance to the seafront, with great potential but in need of some TLC. The rooms had old furniture and were in poor condition, but you could make your own tea and coffee. The service seemed unorganized and struggled with cleanliness. The dining experience had its ups and downs. Overall, an okay stay with room for improvement.
The hotel location has great potential, being right outside the bus station and close to the beach. However, the rooms were in poor condition with dirty towels and a strong smell of cigarette smoke. The service was lacking as dirty items were not addressed promptly.
Despite the neglected appearance and discomfort of the rooms, the hotel has potential if properly maintained. The service was lacking, with rude staff, but the location was convenient and promising. The dining experience was average, and facilities needed improvement.
