This hotel offers a wonderful experience with its prime location near the Lido beach promenade and a variety of excellent restaurants just a short walk away. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped, providing a relaxing stay. While the breakfast was enjoyable, there were a few issues with food temperatures and freshness. The pool area is lovely, but the outdoor pool is quite cold, making it less appealing for some. Overall, it's a great place to unwind and enjoy the local area.
