“September 2018 visit”

I visited this hotel for a week in September 2018. I was solo in this hotel as I booked late and my family was in another. Breakfast was simple, but I'm a fussy eater so fine for me.

I visited this hotel for a week in September 2018. I was solo in this hotel as I booked late and my family was in another. Breakfast was simple, but I'm a fussy eater so fine for me. The staff was great with check in, I remember reading reviews about a €100 deposit but I never got asked for it. I got given a 2 bedroom apartment on the 3rd floor which was great as I had loads of room. Terrace side view looking at the hotel next door, but a small view of the sea. I only stayed by the pool once, the pool was really cold I came straight out and just sunbathed. The hotel is close to the town and all the amenities and the beach. I am booking again with my friends for September, but will again be mostly at another friends hotel. I would say this hotel would be better for singles or people going on nights out/stag/hens that are only going to use to sleep in, or on a budget to just get away.

“You get what you pay for!”

First off I do not understand what people expect from accommodation when they pay absolute pittance for it! It's not a hotel, it's an aparthotel which gives you more freedom than a hotel imo.

First off I do not understand what people expect from accommodation when they pay absolute pittance for it! It's not a hotel, it's an aparthotel which gives you more freedom than a hotel imo. The rooms are very dated and in need of some repair...kitchen needs a complete overhaul and beds need replaced. But they are spacious and clean! We were on the 7th floor and the lift worked the whole time we were there. The balcony is big and there's a beautiful sea view! We were half board so breakfast only. Very disappointing...not a great choice of hot food only egg bacon tomatoes and beans. The cereal was stale, a few breads and croissants and toast. Felt like we were constantly being watched by staff like we were gonna steal a teacup or something! The pool never seen sun the whole time we were there...it was baltic. The building to the left blocked the sun most of the day and the trees blocked it the rest. Very little choice in the bar and expensive! A few video games and a pool table in the indoor area between pool and restaurant...2 chairs...it was quiet when we were there but I'd hate to see it in height of summer. On check in we were early and it was no problem. No €100 deposit was requested! On check out there was a really lovely blonde lady working! She was so helpful helping sort our transfer. We were there at the same time as a group of French students...so noisy and no respect for anyone! You can't take bookings for these groups and family's and couples. I would never take my children to it as they would be bored stupid! But I'd return with my husband or my friends. It's so central to everything and 100% passable for the price we paid!
