Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were undoubtedly clean and comfortable, quite spacious, with a balcony giving a nice touch. The breakfast was very rich and tasty, but the service left me feeling a bit disappointed.
The hotel offers comfortable and well-appointed rooms with a nice business corner and high-speed internet connection. However, the service was careless and disappointing, lacking enthusiasm and sympathy. The location is excellent, near the port for easy access to Kerkennah islands, but had ongoing renovation smells.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were quite spacious, clean, and equipped with a nice business corner for work, but there were noticeable stains in some areas.
