My stay at the hotel came with great views and a nice location by the beach, which was definitely a highlight. However, the rooms felt quite old and uncomfortable, and the service from the staff was not friendly at all. The dining options were decent but nothing to rave about. Overall, it's a mixed bag, and although the location is fantastic, the noisy environment and lack of comfort really detracted from the experience.

I recently stayed at this hotel and while it has a fantastic location right on the beach, I found the rooms to be somewhat outdated and in need of some renovations. The service was friendly, but there were moments of disorganization. The dining options were decent with a nice variety at breakfast, but the lack of Wi-Fi in the rooms was definitely a downside.

The hotel is well-located near the beach, offering stunning ocean views at sunrise and sunset. The rooms are decent but feel more like a 3-star experience, and the service at reception can be extremely slow. Dining was disappointing, especially with some unpleasant odors in the restaurant. Nevertheless, the large pool area is a nice touch, but I wouldn't say it's the best value for money given the overall experience.

I had a decent stay overall, as the hotel offered clean and comfortable rooms and a nice modest breakfast. However, the service left something to be desired, as the staff seemed a bit unfriendly and untrained.
