Located in a nice pine forest and close to the sandy beach, this hotel advertises itself as a place to enjoy and relax. The location is indeed beautiful, peaceful, and close to nature. The reception staff are friendly and do their best to assist guests. The breakfast is really good, with an excellent variety of local products. The food in the lobby restaurant Liiv is tasty and well-prepared.||However, the overall experience depends a lot on the time of visit and the type of room. During weekends the place is usually overcrowded, especially the spa area. The problems begin already with the parking — the courtyard is completely full, and guests often have to drive out to find a spot near the main road, where a beach parking lot is located. The hotel does not guard the designated parking spaces for its own guests, and spa visitors simply occupy all available spots.||In the evenings, the Liiv restaurant is often fully booked, and there are practically no alternative dining options except for the expensive gourmet restaurant upstairs. The service in Liiv needs significant improvement: guests experience long waiting times, and tables are not cleaned promptly. Maybe, making this service more efficient will solve the eating problem?||The standard rooms have clearly seen better days. While they are clean, the decor and bathrooms are truly worn out. Shower heads leak at different angles, water easily floods the bathroom floor, and there is black mold on the old tile seams — most likely due to poor ventilation. Soundproofing between rooms is almost nonexistent.||The spa area is frequently overcrowded as well, and the chlorine concentration in the air and the pools is so high that it causes eye irritation. In the shower rooms of the spa, water does not drain properly, so guests end up standing ankle-deep while showering. It seems that the hotel urgently needs a major renovation of its plumbing systems and shower cabins in the main building.||Overall, there remains an impression of an overpriced facility with little justification for the cost — the same issues were present three years ago, and very little has been improved since then.
