Negatives first When we arrived we had a huge Tree at the balcony, offered another room which was a box room in the eaves that would be fitting for student accommodation. He knew we wouldn't move! Advised there are no rooms with views, as quite built up. After to talking to other residents we were actually lucky with our room. No storage l have to hang my clothes off the door frame. WiFi logs you out every time you leave the hotel & you need your passport number to log back in! Miserable rude receptionist with orange hair on in the evening, not helpful at all, just on her phone continuously. All sunbeds gone by 7am. Some people reserving 2 on either side of the pool to follow the Sun. Very selfish. After that you have to move other people's beds around to try & make Space. Usual people leave towels all then come back at 3pm so annoying but it happens everywhere. All the sunbeds have had it. People were buying lilos to put on them it's like laying on a metal bunk bed with no mattress Balcony door has no outside handle & you will get stuck out there if you close the door. One girl was trapped on her balcony for 2 hours at 4 in the morning. Food not available when we arrived 9pm, however did have snacks at 23.00 Only plastic glasses available as bar is at the pool. Positives Entertainment not bad Drinks not bad either you can get drunk eventually. Good hairdryer, shower gel & shampoo. Shower was great. Rooms cleaned daily & towels changed, maids were lovely. Coffee shop gem hidden to the right side of the outdoor food area, down the steps. There are also better toilets down there too. You can get coffees hot & cold +flavoured from 12.00 Book swap on every floor by the lift which was very useful. Location is great, a short walk to nearest bars & shops then a little further to the beach. If you turn right out of hotel, right again & follow the road round, Billys cozy corner is excellent. If you cross the road it heads to the beach. Busier bars to the left (younger) a few to the right. Cettia hotel excellent entertainment, unfortunately we found to late into our holiday. Warning Wild boars/pigs roam the streets at night, they are huge. If you ignore them they ignore you. Talk of the town up the other end is excellent highly recommend. £25 for a 2 hr show plus a nice chicken & chips with salad & bread & butter. Roxys at the other end if free but they were so rude to us we didn't stay there. All in all a good holiday
