Average Hotel stay
Hotel is average, it needs refurb. The location is good. There are lots of conferences taking place so you battle to find a place to sit and eat. Be aware check in time is only 16h00. We paid for sea View room but it is only partially sea-view and you look right into everyone else's room. Some staff were really helpful while others were not, so luck of the draw.

Great location, amazing included breakfast, helpful staff. Be aware there is no AC and rooms get really hot. Had to move rooms because, due to room layout, couldn’t open window while sleeping.
