Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Comfort and facilities are rated lower than other categories — While rooms and service score high (9), comfort and facilities each sit at 7.5, suggesting the beds or in-room amenities may not be top-tier for everyone.
- Some furniture and showers show wear — A few guests mention that furniture is a bit old and that the shower can be difficult to use, though this is offset by cleanliness and convenience.
- Check-in ends late at night — Check-in window runs from 14:00 to 23:59, which could be restrictive if your arrival is delayed beyond midnight — though the front desk likely has a process.
- No pets allowed — The property does not accommodate pets, which is a limitation for travelers with animals.
- Noise from street may be a consideration — Located on a city street near the beach and old town, some guests might experience street noise, though no review explicitly mentions this as a major issue.

The big roof terrace was a highlight, with unrestricted views of the sea. The location was convenient, midway between the old town and the windsurfing/kitesurfing schools. The staff was very friendly and helpful, especially the manager who spoke English and French fluently. It was great value for money, and I'm already planning to return next year. I highly recommend this hotel.”
