I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which was tucked away in a quiet area and had a beautiful lobby and pool area. However, the room I got felt like it could have been cleaner, as the patio cushions were stained upon arrival. While the service was mostly friendly and helpful, they did seem to forget items from our orders occasionally. Overall, it's a nice place but has some room for improvement.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel, as it had a great location right next to the beach and a lovely pool area. The rooms were large and spacious, which was a big plus, but they did have a bit of a humidity smell and weren’t as clean as I had hoped. The service could’ve been better, as the staff didn’t address a key issue we had, but they were generally friendly. Overall, it felt like a good value for money, but there were definitely areas for improvement.
