Hotelli suoraan 80 luvulta. Aika pysähtyi sinne astuessaan. Huoneessa paikat hieman repsotti ja kylpyhuoneessa kosteus tehnyt tuhojaan mutta kaikki muu oli niin ihanaa ettei se haitannut. Henkilökunta super avuliasta. Maman tekemän ruoka herkullista. Uima allas alue loistava vaikkakin allasbaari ei ollut auki koko viikkona. Juomat piti hakea hotellin sisäbaarista. Näin loistoluokan siivousta en ole nähnyt koskaan aiemmin. Joka päivä oli huoneesta lattiat pesty yms. Lakanat vaihdettiin 3 päivän välein. Ilmastointilaitteet huoneissa uusia. Näkymä huoneesta merelle oli kuin unesta. Sängyissä olevat patjat olivat hyvät nukkua. Aamiainen oli joka aamu sama mutta riittävä. Hotellin sijainti oli myös hyvä. Rannalle lyhyt matka ja esim plataniakselle pääsi bussilla melkein hotellin edessä olevalta pysäkiltä 10 minuutissa. Fun train matkoille pääsi mukaan suoraan hotellin edestä. Kaksi hyvinvarusteltua kauppaa aivan hotellin lähellä.

Kaikki oli omiin tarpeisiin nähden loistavaa, alueella on kaikki tarvittava kuten kauppa ja ravintolat vieressä eikä mitään ylimääräistä. Aamupala runsas ja riittävä. Illallisella maman tekemä ruoka todella maukasta. Allasalue todella siisti ja rauhallinen. Huoneet puhtaat ja sängyt ihanat, parveke reilun kokoinen. Meri on lähellä ja oma auto kannattaa olla käytössä, helppo lähteä seikkailemaan milloin haluaa. Suosittelemme lämpimästi!
