I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location was absolutely perfect, close to shops and attractions. The room was neat and provided all the essentials, making my stay comfortable. However, the breakfast was on the simple side, which was a bit of a letdown. The amenities like the pool were quite nice, but the Wi-Fi connection was unfortunately quite patchy throughout my stay.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The location is superb, just a stone's throw from the beach and well within reach of various dining options. The rooms were decent, though I found them a tad outdated for my taste. The staff was welcoming and accommodating. However, I found the breakfast selection to be somewhat lacking, which was a bit of a letdown. For what I paid, I expected a little more variety in the dining department.
