I had a lovely stay at this hotel, especially with how clean and comfortable the rooms were. The beach view from my room was stunning! While the staff was warm and welcoming, I felt that some aspects of the service could have been more efficient. The dining experience was decent, but breakfast options were a bit lacking. Overall, it was a good value for my money, though a few minor improvements would make it perfect.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, which is right on the seafront and perfect for a beach getaway. My room was spacious and modern, providing a comfortable oasis. However, breakfast could use a wider selection, and the price of parking seemed a bit steep. Overall, it's a nice spot if you want to enjoy the beach and relax.
