• Location: 5 Just a little bit too far away from town to make it a comfortable walk. The building itself is part of a huge apartment complex so you are living next door to locals. The rocky beach nearby was nice.
• Common facilities and services: 5 Excellent tennis facilities. Was too cold to try the pool. The beach is really just the sea, so no sand. Restaurant was pretty good in terms of quality and value for money with the rushed off his feet waiter/chef/bvarman doing a great job, with a smile!
• Staff: 7.5 On the whole nice and friendly staff.
• Quietness: 5 Can expect some noise from the garages below and the neighbors given the size of the complex. The rooms were not particularly sound proofed so you could here the odd door closing, people walking, kids etc.
• Room: 7.5 For the money, €49 a night, couldn%27t have asked for more. A small balcony, comfortable bed, large bathroom. Did the job.
• Value for money: 7.5
