We stayed in a family room, and the bedroom was clean and comfortable. The hotel’s location is excellent, close to the public pool and the marina, which made getting around very easy. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating.
The bedroom could use a furniture refresh, and the TV was an older model rather than a smart TV. On the positive side, the room was very quiet, and we weren’t disturbed by any outside noise. The pool wasn’t particularly inviting, so we didn’t use it, and the breakfast buffet could be improved by offering a wider variety of food options.
Overall, it’s a great budget hotel. If you’re looking for an affordable, clean, and well-located place to stay, this is a good choice.
A great place to stay with everything we needed, including being able to buy reasonably priced drinks from reception. Rooms are very clean and serviced to a high standard. There was everything we needed in the room.
Its a very cosy and compact property with a friendly atmosphere.
For those who have negatively commented on this property, i cant understand why! It has everything needed for a great stay! It is about 20 mins walk to the esplanade though but this didnt bother us.
Great stay, lovely place. Thank you
Breakfast and dinner in the evening were excellent - the best i have had.
Staff were extremely helpful and Marco went out of his way to book tours for us while we had a swim - even delivered the paperwork to the door of our apartment.

All good
We arrived about midnight. Marco v friendly and helpful and even made us fresh toasted sandwiches (incl with gluten free bread). Clean, spacious, lovely apartment. Quiet. Easy to get to from airport late at night. Secure off- street parking.
We were only there overnight but it was easy enough to walk the esplanade to the tourist district (though a longish walk to the tourity area of the eaplanade), check in and out were easy, and we were able to leave our luggage while on a liva aboard.
Loved this hotel. Nice pool. The rooms were very clean and had great amenities; even shaving cream. The staff were very welcoming. We stayed six nights over two weeks. They stored our extra luggage and my medical supplies. We could not have picked a better place!
