the location was good, near the beach.
The reception staff did not seem very helpful. I felt ignored at times. when i reported a problem with my room, it took a long time to get resolved. also, the corridors felt dark because of the dim lighting and dark decor. It was not very inviting.

The breakfast offered a good variety of options right next to the beach and close to the harbour. I appreciated how easy it was to walk to the center from the hotel. I found the addition of the café and italian restaurant a great bonus. The walkway to the marina felt secure, even late at night.
The wellness area was a little small. The fitness room could benefit from more equipment.
