My stay at the hotel was truly a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious, bright, and offered a spectacular view of the sea, but being close to the lift made for early morning noise disturbances. The decor with beautiful paintings added a touch of elegance. I appreciated the option to rent beach beds for a reasonable fee of 7 euros a night.
