"Simple Mediterranean breakfast more than adequate but full menu available if required "

"The location and views are exquisite. The exterior is beautiful and gives an exciting, mysterious feel. That is where the goodness ends. As soon as you enter the hotel, you enter a bizarre, cult-like atmosphere. The reception area is covered with pictures of the owner with famous people and a whole shelf showcasing his book. His face is everywhere! The other owner is an artist whose bizarre paintings cover every available surface in the hotel. Our room with a sea view was very basic with no amenities. The bathroom is completely unacceptable. It is a plastic, modular unit tucked into the corner. I have seen larger bathrooms on airplanes. You could not raise your arms in the shower without hitting the walls. The flimsy shower curtain did not even go to the floor which meant the entire bathroom became wet and slippery. The hotel feels rundown and neglected. The wallpaper in our room was dirty and there were cracks everywhere. We left early after a strange conversation with the man at reception about religion and politics. The encounter gave me a uncomfortable feeling and we decided we did not want to stay our last night. Overall, I was very disappointed. It could be an amazing place if the owners focused more on the guest experience and not their own. "

"Great stay. Will definitely use again."

"Great location. Perfectly ok stay. Unexceptional. Rooms are functional. Firm bed and pillows. In-room had Instant coffee as opposed to a coffee machine. Shower room is rather cramped. Shower itself is small and difficult to use if you’re over 6 foot. Buffet breakfast is fairly typical buffet. A lack of healthy options, and food quality fairly low. Melitta coffee machines deliver rocket fuel (a highlight). Reception staff excellent and helpful We had ‘Lounge access’ which offers free snacks and drinks between 5:30-7:30pm. Minimal effort has gone into this facility. Wine is really quite awful. And the room fills quickly."

"This hotel is in a good location which is across the road from the major shopping centre. You have many dining choices"
