I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, making it a comfortable place to unwind. The location was convenient, just a short walk from the beach, which was a significant plus. However, the dining options could use some improvement, especially at breakfast. The pool was nice, but I was disappointed that the Wi-Fi wasn’t free and had to be paid for extra.

The hotel boasts a wonderful location just a short stroll from the beach, making it easy to enjoy both sun and fun. The rooms are quite spacious and comfortable, though they could use some updates. Service was generally good, but there were some delays when ordering room service. The pool is a nice touch, but could be a bit crowded at times, especially in the afternoons. While the pricing is reasonable, it's worth noting that the dining options could be improved.
