Great location and view, large room, large bathroom. Comfy beds. Everything is very dated. The hotel really needs renovation. Old and small tv, limited channel. Poor wifi. Room got very warm - no A/C. Great when arriving by car, large car park (charged). Average breakfast.

Location was brilliant by the sea. But the hotel had seen its better days long ago. Rooms, floors, carpets, corridors were dirty and disgusting. Its a pity, cause the location is marvellous. Also staff was unfriendly since the first reception communication to restautants.

Not recommended

If you are looking for a hotel with an aura of past glory, then this is it. In fact it too has left the premises. If you want to charge bar items to the room, that's a no "we have two different systems". Good they made it easy for themselves. If you want to drink something in your room, then what management thinks what we quest deserves are paper cups.

This place feels tired

Renovation/update desperately needed. Excellent personnel but the hotel is just so worn down, that it can’t really make up for it. Pool is very small, and facilities around it, changing room/lockers/etc, are awful and uninviting.

Venligt personale - Nedslidt hotel!

Serveringspersonslet og receptionen var venlige og imødekommende og gjorde en god indsats. Desværre er hotellet i meget dårlig stand, og der er sparet på selv basal rengøring og vedligeholdelse. Min kones topmadras var opslidt og måtte udskiftes ( af receptionisten selv, da “teknikafdelingen” ikke kunne træffes(!) ) Badeværelset lugtede fra afløbet, Der var bagfald i brusekabinen, så vandet ikke løb væk. Rækværket på altanen var grønt af alger. Hvorfor kun én (rusten) stol på altanen til et par? Ukrudt mellem fliserne på solterrassen, som ikke var blevet fejet for nylig. Parkeringen er udliciteret til et parkeringsselskab. Men markeringerne af pladserne var slidt væk, så folk holdt tilfældigt med så stor afstand at der ikke var plads til dem der kom sidst. Hotellet trænger generelt hårdt til en opdatering.

Ok hotel og hellere ikke mere end det

Hotellet ligger godt. Vores værelse var OK , men lidt slidt både stor vinduesparti samt badeværelses dør. Morgenmads buffet var OK men det var meget tydeligt der manglede personale der kunne rydde op efter folke der var gået.
