I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which is situated right by the beach and near some great dining spots. The rooms were very clean and provided a comfortable atmosphere. The staff was incredibly welcoming. However, I found the breakfast choices a bit lacking, which was a disappointment. The amenities, especially the pool area, were fantastic. Overall, the value for money was reasonable, although I wish Wi-Fi was complimentary instead of an additional cost.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, enjoying the modern and spacious rooms that were impeccably clean. The staff was incredibly accommodating, making my experience even better. On the downside, I found the dining options to be rather limited, especially for breakfast, and the parking situation wasn’t ideal. Overall, for the price, it was good value, but there's definitely room for improvement in the dining area.

Although I enjoyed the amenities, the dining options could use some improvement. The prices were reasonable, but I felt the internet should be included instead of being an extra charge.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, as the ambiance was lovely and the beach was just a short stroll away. The rooms were immaculate and provided a comfortable retreat at the end of the day. However, I found the breakfast offerings to be quite basic, which was a little disappointing. The pool area was well-kept, making it a great place to relax. Overall, I felt like I got a good value for my money, though I did wish that a complimentary Wi-Fi option was available.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel which is located right by the beach, making it perfect for sunbathers like me. The rooms were clean and comfortable, providing a cozy retreat. The dining could use more variety, especially for breakfast, which was a bit underwhelming. The pool area was nice and well-kept, adding to the overall experience. However, I was a little disappointed that Wi-Fi came with an extra cost.
