6.6/10

The hotel had a bit of a dated feel in the rooms with shabby plaster, but the cleanliness and the comfort of the large bed made up for it. The morning noise from the room above was bothersome, and the bathroom lacked convenient storage, but overall, it served its purpose for a short stay.

7.6/10

The hotel rooms offered lovely views out over the beach, but the location near the boiler room made it quite noisy. The terrace, which is actually the restaurant roof, provided a unique setting. The service was good, and the location would be lovely with some evening lighting. The dining experience was buffet style and had a good selection, but some improvements like fresher bread rolls would be nice.
