I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, with a fantastic beach just steps away and local restaurants nearby. The rooms were spacious and well-kept, though a bit outdated. The staff was attentive and helpful, really enhancing the experience. While I enjoyed the dining options, I wish there were more variety for breakfast. Overall, I felt like I got good value for my money, even if the dining experience could use some improvements.
