I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, thanks to its great location right on the beach with easy access to the sandy waterfront. The rooms were comfortable and had a jacuzzi tub, which was perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun. While the service was friendly, it wasn't always as prompt as I hoped. The breakfast was decent but could use a bit more variety to elevate the experience.
