    Not actually a 4 star hotel, poor quality of beer and juices. Except breakfast, the variety of the food can be improved. Do not allow people to take food in the room, so much people in the elevator with plenty of plates full of food. Except room service when is something organized.

    Good breakfast, big and clean room, good wifi, nice swimming pool, good ice-cream.

    the hotel looks like an comunist one, the people that works there dont know what a smile is or oapitality or profesionality. To get to the beach you have ti wolk a lot and the food was really horrible. I travel a lot but this place is the number 1 for the worst food ever

    Just the room and the beds were ok the rest was all desapointing

    Very noisy nights - many discos and parties till late in the night in neighbour hotels Food - not quite what expected. Not much variety. Wet floors were not properly marked - in the eating area No parking available - though staff helped us to find an unpaid spot! Not enough cleaning staff - long waiting lines at check in (rooms were not ready at given time...)

    Really close to the beach - only 25-30 steps and about 5 min walking distance Beds, cleanliness, bathroom - great Cleaning ladies very friendly - though they didn't speak any ather language but bulgarian Great welcome gift - tasty wine Good working air conditioning and fridge Great balcony sea-view Daily fresh bottled still water (1.5 liter for a room) Very respectful and friendly employees - even if some clients were rude or unpatient. Exceptional professional!

    In the bathroom there was an awful smell from the drain I think. I had to keep the bathroom door closed all the time.

    Everything was fine, but there was no AC in the room. Too hot sometimes! Nice, heated pool, nice breakfast, spacious room, nice view

    Good conditions, but the worst lifeguard I’ve ever seen in my life!

    The lifeguard had a very arrogant attitude and was disrespectful. I’m talking about the man with long hair (because there were 2 lifeguards at the pool, but the one with short hair was ok). We were playing with a ball on the outdoor pool and accidentaly, the ball touched a person- we’ve apologized, the person was very nice, smiled at us, saying that was no problem at all. But the lifeguard confiscated our ball without saying nothing, and gave it to us when we’ve left the pool. After this incident, we’ve went again to the pool, without ball, but this time, I was accidentily hit by a bool- twice times. Even the lifeguard was there, he was acting as nothing happened. He did not confiscated the ball of that person, he did not even telling him to be more carreful. That’s why, I will give 7 to this property. It’s a shame that you’re hiring such kind of people to your hotel.

    Good conditions, very very clean, nice people at the reception, lovely food

    OK, but nothing special.

    I visited this hotel again now, after 2015 and 2017. Obviously, any review is subjective. But I will try to provide information as objectively as possible. What was not good: much less, about 5-6 dishes, which are repeated every day, after a few days the menu becomes boring. Select drinks have largely disappeared, soft drinks have been replaced with some low-quality no-name brand. The drinks iare now served only in the lobby bar, the queue is long, the staff is overworked. Check-in only after 2:30 p.m., in this way the hotel saves money because it does not offer you lunch. Departure by 11 o'clock, so new economy with a lunch, but if you want, you can wait till 12.00 pm to get a food. Few parking spaces, you don't have access to them. Regarding the resort, dirt on the alleys, especially on the path that leads to the beach. Extremely expensive private parking, sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach. (The fact that on the Bulgarian coast approximately 60-70% of the guests are Romanian citizens, inevitably led to a considerable decrease in the quantity/quality of the services offered.)

    What was constant and good: the room, the cleanliness, the comfort, the staff.

    Not a 4 star hotel, rather 3 stars. Almost the same food each day, cutlery in a very bad condition, poor quality of juices and beer. Improve the cleaning for the outdoor pool, the drains must be cleaned daily. Expensive parking.

    Good breakfast, the room was clean. Good Ice-cream.

    Worst experience ever ! - no food - could not find anything to eat, we had ultra all inclusive but there was no food (see attached pictures for proof) - hotel smelled like sewerage everywhere (room, restaurant, everywere) - everything was very dirty, the plates, the hallways, the rooms, everything (see attached pictures for proof) - there was one bar for all inclusive, 1 single person working at the bar, and a very long queue were you can wait an hour to get a poor quality drink - no parking (even paid) at the hotel or anywhere close to the hotel - long walk to the beach

    Hotel was so bad we were only able to stay 1 night, after that we checked out and went to stay at another hotel.
