The hotel is in a great location and our room was comfortable with a small balcony where you could sit and look out to the sea. The staff were friendly and helpful, and breakfast was good. Beaches, shops and restaurants are all within walking distance.

Very friendly staff; my only comment is that it would have been nice to check in at 1:30 PM instead of 3:30 PM since the room was available; we had just flown in from the US and jet lag was awful........

We loved our recent 5 night stay ,a perfect location with helpful friendly staff. The hotel rooms are small and would benefit from a little update but the one we booked had a beautiful ocean view which was amazing. The only thing we would recommend is a kettle in the room so that guests could make a tea or coffee when they wanted.

Our stay was perfect! We were a family of 4 traveling together and the girls had their own space in the room. The staff was extremely helpful. Parking was just beneath the plaza and priced reasonably. The plaza offered many dining options and shopping was just up the hill. We were close to the beaches so the car could stay parked for the entire weekend. Definitely would stay there again!

My wife and I have discussed how we should respond.
We could not wish for a better, central location. Everything was just a stroll away. First, we thought the staff we met - the young ladies at the reception desk - were polite and immensely helpful, although the one who showed us on arrival the "upgraded" room carefully avoided its drawbacks. An example was the toilet which was located in a cupboard. Otherwise the room was comfortable with a good view of the square outside. We were only on the first floor but the lift was a bit temperamental, yet it took us down to excellent breakfasts each morning.
