The food was outstanding and there were lots of dishes in the menu.

The service was impeccable, even so some people working there were very rude.

I really enjoyed the details, like location and staff, they were immaculate. It was a walkable area, an enjoyable base for me. Apart from that, Beach was 10 minutes away by driving. Though the view was excellent, I had well sized bedroom. Courtesy from the whole staff. The pool was heated.

Hotel was fairly large and beautifully kept. Gorgeous view, a good balcony, lovely bed, too. Breakfast had lots of food, including healthy cereal, sausages, fresh fruit, scrambled eggs and bacon.

Wi-Fi connection was slow, made me a little nervous.
