Location
Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the room had a fabulous balcony with views of the sea and Venetian fort, and the location was great for accessing the port and bus stops. However, the room itself was small, dull, and uncomfortable, with a terrible bathroom. The service was kind but lacking some information, and the dining options were good but not outstanding. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel room with a sea view, though spacious, had a smell issue like dirty socks and sewage gas, but it was clean and well-equipped. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, offering luggage storage and dining recommendations. The location was excellent for quick access to the sea-side avenue and local attractions, despite overlooking a busy roadway. The dining experience was okay with a limited choice but included in the rate. Overall, a mixed experience with highlights in cleanliness and friendliness, though some room odor issues.
The hotel room was a bit small for our liking, so we would opt for a larger one next time. Despite being described as 'hot,' the room had all the necessary amenities. It was functional and clean, featuring a small balcony overlooking the harbor, but lacked character.
