Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel has an excellent location, so the beach, the old town and the restaurants were all within walking distance. Unfortunately, we didn't like the hotel's facilities, as many things are in need of renovation and weren't always cleaned properly. Nevertheless, we would recommend the hotel to travelers who want to reach everything on foot and only want to use the hotel for sleeping purposes.

The whole place smells like cigarettes, bathroom had what appeared to be black mold under the bathtub & there was hair on the floor from previous guests. All that being said the bed was really comfy & the area was close to all the fun restaurants but far enough away to be quiet

Partially good accommodation

Excellent staff service and big size of room, but should be improved significantly the cleaning: old stains in many parts of the furniture room and dust, also in the bath (shower top). What a pity because the venue is really awesome!

Hotel vieillot qui ne mérite pas ses 4 étoiles, la douche pendouillait, les fixations étant cassées. Personnel très sympathique et arrangeant. Piscine agréable sur le toit mais vieille aussi. Le tout nécessiterait un bon rafraîchissement. Petit déjeuner correct. Très bien situé.

Très déçu pour un hôtel quatre étoiles !!!!

Hôtel qui ne vaut pas ses quatre étoiles. Très vieillissant et assez austère. Piscine agréable même sur une terrasse vieillotte à l’image de l hôtel. Par contre très bien situé près la vieille ville animée .
