Positive Reviews
positive:
Right on the Beach.
If you're ready to enjoy the seaside, this handily located hotel gives you ideal access. Furthermore, it's only about a 20-minute walk to town, where you can find several restaurants. Guests generally thought the prices were acceptable considering they were so close to the ocean.
positive:
Fantastic Views.
This hotel isn't much to look at from the outside. Many guests noted that it looks like a bunker, and pointed out the crumbling concrete. Once you get inside however, get ready to enjoy lovely views. You can even admire the ocean while swimming in the saltwater pool. Plus, many rooms have sea views.
positive:
The Food is Very Good.
Many guests were satisfied by the quality and taste of the food served. They had particularly nice things to say about the breakfast buffet, which has plentiful variety and is freshly stocked with items.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Refurbishment is Needed.
Guests often commented that the hotel has seen better days and that the management should really invest money into improving it. For example, some guests said the décor is tired and that some toilets had cracked parts. Sometimes these primarily aesthetic issues spoiled guests' overall impressions.
negative:
Rooms Are Too Hot.
You may find that the rooms are uncomfortably warm. Guests who noticed the hot temperature and were bothered by it were sometimes annoyed that it was hard to remedy the issue. That's because opening the windows can cause sand to blow into the rooms, especially if the weather is very windy, as is common for the location.
negative:
The Swimming Pool Has Uncommon Rules.
Some guests were unpleasantly surprised to find that swimming caps must be worn while in the saltwater pool. Furthermore, men cannot wear baggy swim trunks, which means tighter options such as Speedos are preferred.
