The hotel room was good with the sea view, with a good bathroom. The only problem was, there should be a tool to wipe water from the floor instead of asking room service every time. The parking was very small so that was an issue, other than that everything else was amazing.

Disappointing Stay During the Holiday

I arrived early at 1:30 PM, but my room wasn’t ready. After going for lunch and returning at 3:30 PM, the room was still unavailable. It was a mistake booking this hotel during the holiday period, as it was clearly understaffed—especially housekeeping, causing significant delays. Checked in 90 minutes past the official time. The room is in good condition but could be better. The check-in process was slow, with a 15-minute wait at reception due to a lack of staff. The team was doing their best but simply couldn’t keep up. The lobby was overcrowded, resembling an airport lounge, making the experience stressful. Another major downside is that there’s no direct access to the shoreline. The surrounding area is full of construction, making it not walkable, especially for families with kids. Despite the delays and inconvenience, no compensation was offered, with the excuse being the holiday rush. To make matters worse, the hotel was also hosting a conference, further straining its capacity.

Everything was great except for the room service. The food was late and disappointing. We ordered the pastry basket and cheese platter. The pastries were stale and far from fresh and the cheese platter offered limited choices and was poorly presented.

This hotel is excellent. The only reason why we gave 3 star for ”Overall rating” and “Staff & service” is one person (we wanted to give one star but it would be unfair to other staff). The lady at the front desk during check in was by far the most disrespectful person we have ever dealt with in any hotel. It was very sad that just one person negatively affected our experience in such a beautiful hotel. Despite that, we enjoyed our stay and we look forward to visiting this hotel in the presence of respectful welcoming human beings.
