Major renovations needed
Not a 4 star hotel for sure. In need of major renovations including air conditioner system. Stayed for 4 days this August. Great location and big rooms but not well kept.

Not worth
I will only give my evaluation regarding the spa: old, turkish Bath is not even hot, sauna very poor, no liquid soap in the shower. One hour 15€? Not worth. The staff is very kind but the service at the spa is not equal to the pictures and what we expect
