The venue was perfectly clean and spacious. Stayed in a well-kept and beautifully decorated room that was been updated to a brighter lighter decor. The location was perfect and magnificent, short walk to beaches, amusements, and the sea, and seaside and town center. I ate at the refurbished restaurant near the hotel.
