Guest Ratings & Reviews
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb with its proximity to the beach and a selection of great restaurants nearby. The rooms were spotless and cozy, and the staff couldn't have been friendlier. The only slight letdown was the limited breakfast options. The pool area was a highlight, well-kept and perfect for relaxing. Overall, the price was fair, but it would have been better if Wi-Fi was included in the rate.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is superb, right in the heart of everything and with easy access to all the sightseeing places. The service was exceptional, especially accommodating our late-night arrival with a warm welcome. The only drawback was being slightly far from the city center, but the secure area made up for it.
