Guest reviews
Exceptional
Liked: Frühstücksbuffet war in Wieserholung und wechsel zwischen Spiegel-, und im Ofen gebackenes Rührei leider wenig abwechslungsreich und nach ein paar Tagen keine Offenbarung mehr. Da könnte dringend was geändert werden. Parkplätze sind ein Problem, denn es gibt leider nur 3. Entweder man hat Glück, oder man muss gegenüber auf einem Parkplatz 10 Euro/Tag löhnen. 60 Euro für 7 Tage oder 3 Euro pro Stunde. Diesbezüglich wird, so wurde uns berichtet, leider nichts vom Hoteleigentümer unternommen.
Rude staff, extremely unwelcoming
Liked: Hotel itself was fine, however we were met with a really rude member of staff who is the man who does night shifts and chases people with a torch, upon arrival he was immediately rude as we came in as a large group at nighttime, and he asked me a question which when i answered he told me to “do my job” and continue writing on the paper he had given me to check in, within a day or two he became nice to us upon realising that we weren’t going to cause any chaos, but otherwise he should not have spoken to any of us this way, not the way we wanted to be greeted to our trip, he was the only issue we had but it was very off putting.
Good but room for improvement
Liked: The hotel is very nice, we weren't given the room we booked but they did rectify it, our room was nice,clean and good outside area, pool was amazing sunbed area excellent exceptional clean, breakfast was ok the breakfast lady was so lovely, night security guy was brilliant, bar staff very nice and polite, a couple of older members of staff a lady with blonde hair and a older man weren't as friendly, room cleaners were lovely and friendly, drinks were ok, cocktails not so good, food was very nice especially the club sandwiches and curly fries. Overall I'd give it a 7/10 there is room for improvement. But we enjoyed our stay!
DO NOT GO HERE!! Awful staff, awful rooms, awful hygiene
Liked: Do NOT go here. The staff are so rude and seem to favour boys over girls. We got beach towels and were told we had to pay but the boys didn’t because they were nice to him. He took a disliking to us as we complained multiple times and his only response was sorry it’s July, so continued to treat us like rubbish. As a group of five girls being separated and stuck on opposite ends of the hotel with the worst rooms ever. We were taken to a room round the back next to a storage cupboard. Our shower was a square on the floor, the aircon rubbish, cockroaches and centipedes, stains and not to mention towels or bed sheets never changed. The security guard was also rude questioning us every night even though we had the key and asked to see our room and passports. Not to mention half way through the holiday we all became so ill due to the lack of cleanliness in this place which ruined the last few days of our holiday. Do NOT go here it will ruin your holiday!
Unfriendly staff
Liked: As soon as we checked in as a group of girls, the staff were rude and defiant when we said that the rooms were not like the pictures. Manager lied and said we would be close to eachother, but put us on separate ends of the hotel. His solution was to put the security guard outside our door? We had to ask for soap- it was two small and thin bars of hand soap for three girls, to last 5 days. Our towels and sheets were only changed the day before we left and a cleaner came into the room, but only changed the bins the whole 5 days. When the cleaner only put 1 clean towel in my friends room instead of 2, the man said that they were lying and must of lost the clean one, before he finally gave my friend a clean towel. Since we rightfully complained the first day, the manager would visibly show his dislike for us. My friends room on the bottom floor had a gap under the door which they had to cover to avoid the cockroaches from coming in. Our aircons did not work, and we have all returned home very ill- I strongly feel it was due to the hygiene of the hotel.
Save yourself
Liked: Probably the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. I went on a girls holiday with my friends, the day we got there my friend and I got put in a room outside the hotel?? Which was so small, derelict and unsafe. When i questioned the reason for this, one of the staff said that the toilet was broken and another said the air on broke?? So which one was it? Upon asking for a partial refund, as it was so far from what we had booked, we got told to “sleep on the streets” as two 18 year old girls?? Not very welcoming if you ask me. They told us to come back the next day at 12pm, I asked to see the room we would be staying in, the man shouted at us saying we can’t see it and told us to leave (clearly had been double booked). We had to spend the night in the small room with no air con, when we had paid for the most expensive room there. And got no refund or compensation. Only rude, little insecure men screaming at us. Not only this, the breakfast was horrific. Stale bread, mouldy yogurt and soggy mushrooms. When we actually got the room we’d paid for, there was wet dripping from the ceiling and dampness everywhere. Furthermore, our towels didn’t get changed once?? In 5 days?? We had to literally go and ask for them to be changed multiple times. They don’t make any of the beds or clean the place at all. The pool was tiny compared to the images online, probably used x0.5 to make it look bigger, not enough sunbeds for guests and the outdoor toilets were horrific and never cleaned. If you want to maintain your sanity please don’t book this hotel. The reviews are true, it is literally hell on earth x
