Lovely hotel, nice bar but dreadful music!
Hotel is nice, rooms are clean and comfortable with everything you need. Wonderful views and great location. Staff are friendly and helpful. Drinks are reasonably priced and there are loads of restaurants nearby if you don't want to eat at the hotel. Breakfast was lovely, dinner was not so good. The rest of our party enjoyed it so maybe it was just me, but I wasn't impressed with the options or the quality. It was nice to have entertainment available, although it wasn't to my taste. Rooftop bar is gorgeous (and you can visit it even if you don't stay there), but why on earth is the music up there so LOUD - and so dreadful?! Impossible to have a conversation without shouting or just have a drink and enjoy the view. I've visited the rooftop bar several times before my stay and it wasn't any better - seriously, I get it in mid-summer if you have lots of 20 somethings staying but the average age of your visitors when I was there was about 60+ - I refuse to believe they want that dreadful noise blaring away! Thankfully you can't hear it from the rooms!

Not worth the money
I stayed here for 2 weeks for a family holiday. My first impression was unwelcoming. I arrived with my partner and son along with my brother and his partner who were helping us with luggage as we had the baby. The receptionist abruptly told us he was allowed no further. I said okay he was just helping us inside with our luggageā€™s . He then told us he was not allowed in the hotel room which he wasnā€™t going to anyway. Once arrived in our room itā€™s very standard room set up. No kettle however. Itā€™s 14 euro a week to rent. Housekeeping were partially friendly, some say hello, some have a lot of attitude. We were asked if we needed cleaning when we had already put the sign out on the door. If no then we would hear the relief in their voice, if yes itā€™s a dramatic sigh and a look at the watch as if itā€™s too much to ask for. We had an ant issue, coming from the corridor under the door into the room, so many that they were found in our clothes! Beds so uncomfortable that we have back pain now and my partner was bitten by bed bugs!! It was confirmed by a pharmacist. For buffet breakfast- dont. Itā€™s not worth the money. Youā€™ll be left with a stomach ache lasting the rest of the day. On check out, there was no ā€œThankyou, how was your stay ā€œ Just a ā€œyes no charges on your roomā€ I asked to leave my luggage and that even seemed an issue. I had other family staying in the hotel and they thought the same. Nothing special at all considering the price payed.

Staff was very friendly, especially Angel who helped us check in and give us recommendations for activities and food. If you do not want to pay for parking on property, it can be a little tricky to find parking. The room was clean and had a balcony. No iron or microwave but had fridge. The location is right on the boardwalk with plenty of restaurants and shopping. The beach is right there too. Breakfast including a variety like pancakes, eggs, sausage, yogurt, ton of breads, juices, coffee, bacon, fruits, etc. Overall solid hotel for your money. Would stay again :)

Very good 3 star hotel, probably a 3 star plus. Breakfast was good with varied choices Drinks and bar snacks were reasonably priced. Fran the hotel games/entertain rep was exceptional. Aqua aerobics and other pool games were entertaining and fun. Hotel has an ideal situation by the beach and the main drag. I would definitely re-visit.

This hotel had everything we needed, however, if you want a QUIET hotel this is not it. Loud thumps music by the pool all day and at night music/ entertainment starts at 10pm and you hear every word from your room if you are overlooking the pool and beach

Itā€™s a 3 star hotel. But itā€™s in an excellent location. Very family orientated with a large pool and many day time activities. Can be noisy being close to the harbour. But location is key, and you canā€™t beat its location on the sea front and its sea room views.

Balcony doors
The hotel met all our needs, with good staff and good cleanliness. The one issue we encountered (2 friends in a family room on the 9th floor), was that when we went on the balcony and closed the balcony doors behind us, so that the room could stay cool with the air con on, we got locked outside and couldn't open the door. We shouted to someone on a lower balcony to get someone from reception to let us back in. Thankfully my friend was strong enough to open the door before help came. But when the member of hotel staff arrived, they just said "be careful, ok?". I feel like the outside part of balcony is a safety issue and should have an opening latch, like they do inside. It shouldn't have been dismissed as a triviality.
