Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with a nice balcony for an additional €30 per night. While the evening turn-down service was missing and towels weren't replaced daily, overall, the room was comfortable and had a good size balcony.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms, although in need of a paint job and new AC, were incredibly spacious and clean, featuring a comfortable bed, ample storage space, and a lovely balcony. I particularly enjoyed the junior suite within the Sol Dunas hotel complex, which was large, pristine, and cozy.
