I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! It's in a superb location, just a stone's throw away from the beach and conveniently close to a variety of restaurants. The rooms were spotless and cozy, and the staff was incredibly welcoming. The only downside was that the dining experience left something to be desired, especially for breakfast choices. The facilities, including the well-kept pool area, added to a pleasant stay. The pricing was fair, although I wish Wi-Fi had been included instead of being an additional cost.
