My friend and I stayed at this hotel in July. The hotel looks old & cheap from the outside so we got scared a bit. Plus when we looked at the sea from the entrance of the hotel it was really far away! But when we entered our room with the view on the other side of the hotel we could see the sea, too, and it was much closer (so the hotel has sea view from both sides). The room was spacey & clean, we liked it. If comparing 4* in Turkey and this 3* in Cyprus, I'd prefer this one. Condition was old but worked properly enough to get us freezed which was really nice at the midday.
It took us 7 mins to get to the beach, and we realized how lucky we are when it appeared that the beach line with the send & sunbeds is short & the rest of the coast can't be used by people. So people from some hotels even had to take a local bus to get to the beach!
The food choice wasn't rich & we mostly had only breakfast. But there are a lot of restaurants nearby where you can get whatever you want.
So if you are seeking for a cheap but clean hotel with room bigger than a cage - this is a good choice.
