The rather large hotel is located directly on the busy Beach Road. Since there is no direct connection to the sea I would hesitate to call this a resort. The main building is set back and there are two wings reaching forward like the claws of a crab. The tips are very close to the road and we were unlucky enough to get a room at the very end of the tip. Check in procedure was quick and efficient. The room is very standard and old-style. No electric outlets at the beds and not that many on the other side. Curtains are not light proof. There is a fridge but there are only two bottles of water in it. Not easy to understand why there are no drinks, I am happy to pay for them. The A/C is very loud. Any attempt to control the fan speed failed. Whatever the setting, it remained at full speed, or so it seemed. The bathroom sink has a stop that is always closed. After washing hands or cleaning teeth you need to stick your hand in the dirty water in order to pull the plus and drain the sink. There is room service for food at a good price and as the only restaurant open was an unpleasant looking bakery shop we had food sent to the room. This was quite OK, but the only place to eat it was at a table on the balcony. Out there it is very loud from the street noise and the irritating whining of the jet ski's on the sea. Not enjoyable or relaxing. So try the swimming pool. This is large but only 1.20 m deep. Just enough for swimming. Of the twelve (!) reclining beds that I counted none was free, so you have to sit on the stone ridge. I saw people with towels, but no idea how to get them. There was no staff at the pool. And then the worst part. It was a long weekend with lots of loud traffic on the Beach Road. Cars, trucks, motorcycles. Loud all night till the early morning, sometimes accompanied by fireworks. It eludes me how a caring host could give these noisy rooms to any guest. Breakfast is buffet style with enough choice. For coffee I would have preferred an espresso machine, the coffee served is mediocre. All in all I would rate the hotel no better than average. For the bad two nights I found that maybe a generous ”poor” would be appropriate. However, the core business and care of a hotel is to provide their guests with a good night's sleep. This I did not get for two nights, so my overall experience was terrible and so is my rating. I will never go back there.
