Solid stay near the beach

clean poolhelpful staffunfriendly reception
The staff was helpful. My room included tea making facilities and a fridge. The pool area was lovely and clean with enough beds. I found it a ten minute walk to the beach.
The reception was not friendly after the check-in. Her friendliness seemed to end after a few questions. She was dismissive for the rest of my stay.

The hotel had a nice breakfast and the staff offered help.
The air conditioning cost extra. It was €12 per day. The wifi was almost non-existent. I also noticed there was no safe room for luggage, and they wanted me to leave my luggage behind a small bar, accessible to anyone!

Good Base for Island Exploration

convenient locationshort walksecuring a sun bed
the hotel provided a decent stay. i found the location quite convenient. a short walk took me to both the main strip and the beach, made exploring easy. securing a sun bed was never a hassle either, no matter the time of day, so that was really nice.
the shower's water flow felt somewhat inconsistent. it wasn't a major issue, but it was noticeable.
