i found the location very convenient, especially the short walks to the beach and shopping center! the reception staff were friendly and helpful. i also really appreciated that after discussing my initial room, i was given a different room with more storage space, which i really needed!
the new menu was a little different, and i missed breakfast and dinner outside under the palm trees, that they had last year.

excellent locationrenovated roomsspacious roomsufficient sunbeds
I found the location excellent, providing easy access to nearby shops and restaurants. The hotel was clean, though my room was cleaned only two days out of my three-night stay. The pool area had plenty of sunbeds.
The beds were quite springy. I could feel the springs. Upgrading to the renovated rooms is advisable.
