Everything is amazing. Such a peaceful haven while right off the main road. Rooms, although a bit tiny, very recently decorated up to a high standard. Pool is fantastic, love the jet spray buttons. Besides the product, the staff are fantastic, especially Kristina.

It's just a few steps away from the beach, it always had free sunbeds around the pool, it's away from the crowdy city, the rooms get cleaned regularly, the owners don't bother the guests with anything and are always helpful, I have no complaints, highly recommended!!!

The team tried to help wherever they could. They were even able to organize donkey milk (which is supposed to be very healthy and similar to mother milk) for our sick son. Normal asks like fixing things or organizing a rent-a-car not even to mention. Beach right in front of the hotel, clean sand beach, shallow sea. Sea view from the balcony. And that all for very low cost. We will come back.

Our first experience with this type of accommodation - centre of a town known for its vibrant nightlife. Both hotel & rooms were absolutely clean, well equipped (we liked its aesthetics), everything was functional. Got rooms oriented to the courtyard - gave acceptable level of night noise. Exceptional staff - nothing was impossible, felt like home. Great breakfasts and restaurant (everyday experience).
