My stay at this hotel was truly delightful. The room was cozy and had a little balcony with a stunning view. The service, however, could have been improved as some staff members seemed too busy chatting rather than assisting guests. The beachfront location was unbeatable, offering direct access to the beach. The dining experience, with great views, was a highlight, but the price could have been more competitive. Overall, a great choice for a relaxing beach getaway.

I had a very delightful stay at this hotel. The room was cozy with a little balcony and a single bed. The bathroom was recently renovated and really nice. Plus, having breakfast included was a great perk!

The room had a little balcony, a single bed, and a fantastic refurbished bathroom, and the breakfast was a nice touch.

Service

5.0

The service here was a bit lackluster. None of the staff really went above and beyond to enhance the guest experience. The general manager seemed too busy chatting with coworkers than focusing on the guests' needs. However, the room service and housekeeping were satisfactory.

Location

9.0

The hotel is perched on a cliff with direct access to the beach, which is amazing! It's a bit of a walk to the center but totally worth it for the stunning views and beach access.
