Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I had a bad experience in this hotel, and i won't be trusting expedia again with my hotel choices. I originally booked the room with a sea view, when the staff saw that my booking was through expedia, they gave me a city view room for disabled people. The view from the room was horrible, and the whole experience was completely different than what I anticipated, and when i tried to ask for change, they offered the room i had originally asked for with an extra 35 euros per night. Very disappointing experience, hotel is very overrated, and customer experience was a fail.

Bad Memory
I booked a room for myself &my sister, I couldn’t make it because my husband was hospitalised , when my sister went to the room she found it very dirty , dirty bathroom & toilet , the bed was the worst , dirty sheets withe Little insects crawling on the BED, also the room was smelly too, smell of cigarettes and damp, it was like the windows were not opened for a long time. She rang me and explain, I got so upset and ask her to go to the reception & explain the room’s situation , any way there was nobody to help , my sister asked them please come & see the room, the lady at the reception said I’m on my own and can not leave , after a while they gave her a room, She stayed 3 days on that room . After 3 days they asked her to pay $40.00 for each day she spend on that room, they took $120.00 from her, My sister was my guest, I didn’t want her to pay anything , I want you to get a refund and get my sister’s money from them, They were very unfair toward my sister.

Terrible! Dont chose this one. Scammers.
Terrible place to stay. These guys are scammers. They will ask 120euro per night to extra charge if you want the room as in photo. Very very poor breakfast. If your neighbour sneezes you can hear :) Impossible to sleep more than 10AM as the cleaning guys vaccuum cleaners will wake you up,
