The apartments are well stocked and very spacious.

Rooms are spacious but some show signs of age; there are complaints of hard beds.

Old bedrooms but overall functional and comfortable.

Rooms praised for very comfortable, extra-large beds, balconies, AC and fridge; some negatives around layout (odd shower/room arrangement), missing large mirror and lack of bathroom sockets or a reliable hairdryer.

The room was spotless clean and everything in perfect condition.

Clean but some rooms are a little tired and the bathroom extractor wasn't working.

Generally clean, but concerns about old rooms and some smells were mentioned.

Rooms frequently described as clean with daily housekeeping, but several guests reported issues (strong sewage smell in one room, complaints about moquette/carpet and some odd room layouts), so cleanliness is good overall but not flawless.

Perfect location for beach access and close to amenities.

Great location, short walk to the beach and nearby restaurants.

Wonderful location on the cliff with ocean views.

Generally strong: within walking distance of restaurants and the beach for many guests and praised for rooftop views; one report mentioned needing to Uber for some destinations, but location is overall very convenient for holidaymakers.

The staff are absolutely amazing and went above and beyond for us.

Staff are exceptional, friendly and helpful.

Service was praised; friendly staff across various areas.

Consistently excellent: staff repeatedly described as very friendly, attentive and helpful (early check-in, luggage holding, upgrades, special birthday cava and cake, warm welcome), making service a standout feature.

The food in the hotel was lovely, and staff prepared food quickly.

Breakfast has great selection and quality.

Breakfast was good, but dinner offerings lack diversity.

Very positive: breakfast repeatedly described as excellent buffet, well replenished and enjoyed on a rooftop with views; minor notes about limited variety from a few guests but F&B is a strong point.

The pool area is very nice and the kitchen is very well equipped.

Good pools and breakfast selection, but access to some areas can be an issue.

Good facilities with a variety of services offered.

Good boutique amenities: rooftop breakfast restaurant, tapas bar and a pool area well suited for adults-only guests. Balanced by reports of a small/very cold pool at times, crowded sunbeds and occasional lack of pool staff.

Definitely value for your dollar!

Price may be considered excessive for the type of accommodation.

Standard for the price, some aspects could improve.

Mixed: several guests praised excellent price/quality and good value, while at least one guest found it overpriced for what was offered, so value is slightly above average overall.
