long queues non-working wifi
The breakfast was decent , and the location was near the beach.
The check-in process was onerous , with long queues and limited staff. I found the lack of basic amenities disappointing . There was no coffee maker in the room. THE wifi also did not work.

underwhelming stay due to noise and old facilities

noise level dated room
the location of the hotel was acceptable.
i was pretty annoyed by the noise level (you could hear everything through the walls!). the room felt very dated, particularly the electrical outlets. it was like stepping back in time (i haven't seen those round pins in decades!).

helpful staff great location fresh pastries good breakfast
Gemma at reception was good! She helped so much with my bags. The hotel location is so close to the beach. The breakfast included many fresh fruits and pastries, so good!
The parking lot gets a little crowded during peak hours.

The restaurant offers lovely steak frites. Breakfast includes fresh fruits and pastries. I think the chef makes amazing omelettes upon request and they are served quickly in the dining area.
