    great location but room cleanliness needs improvement

    The beach access was fantastic! It was just steps away from the hotel. Additionally, the staff offered us exceptional service throughout our stay.

    However, I found the room's cleanliness to be below expectations.

    stunning view
    sunny terrace
    spotty wifi

    The view from my room was absolutely stunning, and the access to the beach made relaxing so easy. I loved hanging out on the sunny terrace by the water. it was the perfect spot to unwind after a long day. Just a heads up, the wifi could be a bit spotty in the rooms, but it didn’t ruin my experience at all! 🌊

    The kitchenette in the room was well-equipped for our needs.

    We were disappointed to find out that there was no continental breakfast offered.

    beach location
    dirty room
    lack of towels

    Location was near beach.

    The room was small and dirty, not as advertised. We only received one set of towels and had to ask for new ones daily. Housekeeping never came to clean or change sheets, making our stay quite uncomfortable.

    Wonderful Location Steps from the Beach

    I really enjoyed my stay, as the hotel was just steps away from the beautiful beach and close to plenty of restaurants and bars. The staff was incredibly helpful, especially Ivan at the front desk, who provided excellent recommendations for my day. My room was clean and comfortable, perfect for the price. However, the hotel could improve by ensuring better cleanliness in common areas.

    Couldn't recommend more for a short break

    Decent room, basic amenities, beach access only a short walk away, the hotel provides a handy luggage storage service and 24-hour reception for convenience.

    Completely satisfied.

    great location
    friendly staff
    cleaned daily
    outdated fixtures
    worn out
    limited parking

    Sandy Beach has a great location, just steps from the beach. I loved being able to walk there so easily. The staff were friendly and offered helpful tips for exploring nearby restaurants and attractions. However, the hotel needs serious renovations. My room smelled musty, and the air conditioner was ineffective. The bathroom fixtures were outdated. the sink faucet wobbled and the hot water took too long to come on. I appreciated that the room was cleaned daily, but the common areas were not well maintained. The tiny kitchenette was a plus, though it lacked some essential items. Limited parking options made it a hassle to find a spot nearby, too. If you're on a budget, this place might work for you, but don’t expect anything fancy.

    beach proximity
    clean room
    plumbing nightmare

    Location is right near the beach—so close, you could practically dive in! The room was clean enough, and we had all we needed for a quick family getaway.

    The toilet backed up like it was auditioning for a plumbing horror film! Plus, who knew bedtime could be so loud? Next to a party? Yikes!

    Affordable Haven Close to the Beach

    Our stay exceeded expectations! Friendly staff helped us feel at home. they even recommended great local eateries. With quick access to the beach and comfortable beds, we made unforgettable memories. Pro tip, bring your own washcloths for convenience! Highly recommend for budget-conscious travelers!

    great location
    dirty room
    moldy shower

    The room was kind of a disaster. The floors were filthy and the shower was gross with a moldy curtain and hair in the drain. The sheets didn't look clean either, so we just couldn't stay there. Definitely not what we expected.
