The rooms, although somewhat outdated, were clean and I found them to be comfortable. The service provided by the staff members was friendly and very helpful. The dining options were varied and plentiful, making it a pleasant experience. The facilities were well-maintained, and the overall value for money was great.

Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms were sleek and contemporary, offering a lovely view and a clean, updated feel. However, there was a slight humid smell, which is common in such climates. The service was top-notch, with helpful staff always going the extra mile, although there were minor oversights with leftover items in the room. The location was perfect for relaxation and easy access to the beach, with some maintenance issues observed. The dining options were acceptable but not outstanding. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for improvement.

I had a wonderful time at this hotel. The location is superb, right on the beach and near plenty of restaurants. The rooms were clean and cozy, and the staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly. However, the dining experience could use a little improvement with more variety for breakfast. The hotel offers good value for the price, but there were some areas that could be enhanced, like the smell of smoke in the room and limited dining options.
