It is ideally situated. Easy access to the beach. The main issue with that is that there is a club/bar that runs till late into the night and make it impossible to have a good night sleep.

L’incubo

Premessa: chiamo prima di arrivare in albergo considerando il gran caldo mi assicuro che la struttura ha l’aria condizionata, al mio arrivo proviamo svariate camere tutte abbastanza sporche e fatiscenti unica nota positiva aria condizionata. Una volta sistemate le valigie usciamo fuori dal residence per andare a cena al nostro rientro troviamo un ventilatore fuori la porta, chiedo al receptionist cosa significasse e lo stesso mi risponde che l’aria è rotta in tutta le stanze considerando che avevo prenotato il residence solo ed esclusivamente per l’aria condizionata gli chiedo un rimborso ed esco via dal residence. Conclusione della storia mi sono ritrovato alle 23 di sera a vagare con la mia compagna in cerca di albergo e non sono nemmeno stato rimborsato! Non so se è peggiore il sito dove ho prenotato ovvero hotels o la struttura
