My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms felt a bit like prison cells with obstructed views unless you peek over the high walls, they were still clean and comfy. The service was just average, not particularly friendly or welcoming. The location was excellent, right by the sea, perfect for families with young children, but don't expect much beyond the local attractions. The dining was decent, with good grilled meat but fairly basic overall.

The hotel rooms are more like prison cells with limited space, but they come with balconies and provide a traditional, hygienic, and larger setup. In the morning, you can enjoy a nice small breakfast with fresh cappuccino. The service might not be very friendly, but the staff is entertaining and accommodating, particularly the chef who cooks up great meals for a reasonable price. The location is excellent, especially for families with young children, offering a pretty setting with a pebbly beach and crystalline water. While the dining experience is good with authentic Italian pizza, it's fairly basic compared to other options. The hotel's facilities are decent, making it suitable for a stay right on the beach.

The hotel boasts a prime beachfront location, perfect for beach lovers, but lacks sea views from most rooms. The rooms are snug, with limited space to move around the bed comfortably. The service was adequate but lacked a warm, welcoming touch. The location is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, with access to local boat trips, yet lacks extensive amenities beyond basic essentials.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were quite cramped with little space to move around, but the convenient beachfront location made up for it. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff being friendly and accommodating while others seemed disengaged.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The traditional rooms, albeit a bit compact, were hygienic and spacious. The morning breakfast with fresh cappuccino was a delightful touch, but the lack of a sea view unless you make an effort was a downside. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff being helpful while others seemed aloof. The location, right on the beach, was ideal for families with young children, although the view was obstructed by a high wall. The dining experience was decent but not extraordinary. Overall, a stay with some highs and a few lows.

I felt like I was staying in a cozy traditional hotel right by the beach with some great perks but also some room for improvement. The rooms were traditional but clean and spacious, and in the morning, I enjoyed a nice small breakfast with fresh cappuccino. However, the room layout felt a bit cramped, resembling a prison cell rather than a typical hotel room.
