This place suits me perfectly, offering free wi-fi, a fitness centre, and a poolside snack bar. The staff were helpful during my first stay, taking care of my elderly parents. I highly recommend it and will be back for a weekend!

Everything in the hotel was designed for an pleasant stay. Knickerbocker Restaurant, located within 5 minutes' walk, is a good dining option. Nice building. It was very clean in the property.

The hotel had a convenient location for local
Shops and bars. The staff were friendly and did their best, but the food options were quite limited and repetitive, disappointing. I also noticed some cleanliness issues around the outdoor areas.

Breakfasts were satisfactory, and I felt very welcome.
The room I stayed in was big and cheap right on top of the bar.

The staff were super friendly, especially catherine and bernice. The food was actually great, with a nice variety every day, and special thanks to the chefs for the tasty meals. The indoor pool was warm and perfect after a day out exploring. Location is spot on, close to the beach and bars.

The hotel's proximity to the beach and convenient access to shops made exploring easy. While the indoor pool area provided a welcoming escape, the noisy bar nearby disrupted sleep. The breakfast was basic, with limited options, which could use some improvement.

I can't find any good point in this hotel
Everything, horrible customer service, no explanations about the booking, i left a pair of sandals, next day came back to collect and the manager said that all stuff left behind can be trowed alway...very desorganized....weird people, premisses very poor, swimpool is scaryng... 2 stars will be too much to classifying this hotel. We left to get a better hotel in the closer area.

The location is good and the inside hall was nice too.
Breakfast was terrible, everyday the same food, there was nothing tasty to eat. It was some problems with hot water in the evenings.
