Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The pictures and description do not match the property at all. There was no indoor pool, spa, sauna or any other amenities for leisure and entertainment, despite the fact that they were all mentioned in the description. The lobby and stairs leading up to the room were extremely dirty and not maintained properly. The rooms are not soundproof. The shower door was unstable, and got stuck halfway while trying to open it. The resort did not provide soap or towels until we asked for them. And even then, the towels were a bit wet and didn’t seem very clean. There was a hairdryer installed on the wall, but the cable was too short and it could not reach the power outlet. Extremely poor engineering! We had booked the room to enjoy the indoor pool mentioned in the description, but as it turns out, there was no indoor pool. However, we had to stay in the room because the weather was awful and we could not leave.

The hotel was lovely, Carolina the hotel manager made us feel very welcomed and made sure every day if we were happy or needed anything, the staff there were very accommodating. I would definitely recommend this hotel and the price was reasonable for this time of year. I would definitely come back next year.

Staff were welcoming as soon as I walked in the door. They even upgraded my sweet to a sea view with balcony. The gym has 3 levels and caters for everything. Pool is amazing and whenever I need my laundry done they had it return to me the same day. I Recomend this place to anyone.

Thieves don't stay there, I got robbed!
I was robbed in this hotel, I left my money in my carry on bag in the room considering it safe like hundreds of the decent hotels I stayed in around the world but I was wrong, 1 hour before I leave to the airport I wanted to take my money I put in the bag but only found the change left there while they took all the 500 bills. I complained to the hotel manager who was frustrated with the event but when she called the hotel owner who told her to wait & do nothing I was extremely disappointed, I called the police who wanted me to come to the station to file a report but I had a flight in less than 2 hours I would have missed it if I did (I almost missed it). Hotel management promised to look at the cameras & investigate & return my money back but of course no feedback once I left the hotel! They were only fast in debiting my credit card with the full amount of my stay. Except for the manager & one receptionist most of the hotel crew are not professional & lack experience beside having thieves among them. Don't stay there,

Nice hotel overall, but not worth repeating
Overall staying at this hotel was a pleasant experience. Having said that, however, I don't think we would stay here again. For starters, the 'sea view' in the deluxe room was more of a pool view, which wasn't very appealing in the winter with an empty pool. You could only see a small sliver of the sea from our room which was disappointing. People should also consider that the balconies are not private and the rooms are not soundproof at all - my husband and I could hear our neighbors or people walking/talking outside in the hallway. Additionally, the breakfast, while generous, was not very appetizing. The one thing we really enjoyed about this place was the location; there are plenty of small shops and nice restaurants nearby that you can walk to and just spend an afternoon exploring. Since we stayed in the winter it was nice to have an alternative to the beach. The staff were also very kind and professional. That being said, while it was an okay experience I don't think it is one we would repeat simply because the price didn't match with the quality we were anticipating.
