Perfect place to leave your things

Working elevator. Older building. Seems like more renovations to come. Huge bathroom. No shower curtain or bath mat. Working air conditoner. WiFi, but the last 2 days wasn't working. Decent location. 20 minute walk to the Pedestrian Boulevard. Includes hills or stairs, to and from. Plenty of places to eat, and grocery store nearby. Private beaches also nearby. There's also a pub nearby, not sure if it serves Guinness, but the pub on the Boulevard does, don't bother eating at that one. Breakfast was very good, along with the service from all staff members. Oh. Not hot water before 9 am. Yes, found out the hard way. Haha.

Unser Aufenthalt war rundum gelungen! Schon bei der Ankunft wurden wir herzlich empfangen und der Service war durchweg freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die zentrale Lage der Unterkunft ist perfekt – in wenigen Schritten erreicht man zahlreiche Restaurants, Cafés und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Besonders praktisch fanden wir den hoteleigenen Parkplatz, der uns die lästige Parkplatzsuche erspart hat. So konnten wir entspannt die Stadt erkunden und uns ganz auf unseren Urlaub konzentrieren. Insgesamt eine sehr angenehme Erfahrung, die wir jederzeit weiterempfehlen können.

Alles tipptopp. Sehr freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal. Zimmer sehr sauber. Der kleine Kühlschrank mit Gefrierfach im Zimmer war toll. Kostenloses WLAN ist vorhanden, funktioniert jedoch im 4. Stock meist spärlich. Das Frühstücksbuffet war sehr frisch und genug Auswahl für jeden vorhanden. Zu Fuß erreicht man die Strände schon in gut 10min und in der Nähe sind sehr viele Lokale, Supermärkte und ATMs. Alles in allem wirklich sehr zufriedenstellend.

Decent

Very helpful staff. Cleaning is not done thoroughly. Cleaning is only done if you are in the room and can let them in otherwise there is no cleaning, sometimes they don't show up at all. Breakfast is almost always cold for example eggs and very limited and sometimes there is almost nothing to eat, and there is no variety at breakfast.
