A simple, minimalistic hotel with king-sized doubles and balconies, it has a few issues such as noise between rooms but prices are fair, and it has a great location in the town centre just back from the beach. A few 'economy' rooms have smaller beds and no balcony. The pool is massive. Skip breakfast and other meals and eat elsewhere.
