• In-house restaurant + Food & Staff (some stayers liked them): A subset of reviews praise the food and the staff’s helpfulness.
  
  

• Affordable-ish for budget travellers (depending on season/room type): Given choice of room types, you could pick according to budget and get a decent stay for moderate cost.
  
  

⚠️ What to Know — Cons / Mixed Reviews

However, guest reviews are quite mixed. Some common complaints:

• Cleanliness & Maintenance: Several reviewers mention that rooms and bathrooms were not well maintained; issues with hygiene, old furniture or broken fittings.
  
  

• Inconsistent Service Quality: Staff behaviour and responsiveness reportedly vary — while some guests found staff friendly, others described rude behaviour or lack of attention especially in hostel-style rooms or cheaper categories
  
  

• Value for Money / Comfort Problems (especially lower-priced or side-sea rooms): Some guests felt the stay was “average” or “not worth” the price they paid — citing small beds, poor room upkeep, uncomfortable amenities. 

• Unreliable Food / Restaurant during certain times: A few reviews say that kitchen/restaurant service becomes poor — limited menu, poor hygiene or unavailability of requested items.
  
  

In short — while many guests enjoyed the sea-facing location and beach access, some had disappointing experiences especially regarding cleanliness and consistency of service.
