Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the location was fantastic, being just a stone's throw from the beach, I found the rooms to be lacking in cleanliness and upkeep. The dining options were very limited, which was a letdown, and the service was decent but not always attentive. Overall, it was a convenient stay, but improvements are definitely needed.
