Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had a mixed experience with good and bad points. The rooms were spacious and clean but showed signs of age and had a damp smell. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff offering quick assistance. The location was ideal for exploring the area, while the dining was pricey and somewhat disappointing. Overall, the hotel offers a comfortable stay with room for improvement in certain areas.
The hotel offers great rooms and service, a special location with direct beach access, and a good dining experience despite high prices. However, late-night construction noise can be bothersome.
