Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located near the beach and within walking distance to beach bars and restaurants. The rooms, though spacious and well-equipped, lacked cleanliness with noticeable mold and dirt. The service was a mix of average acknowledgment and super friendly, accommodating staff, making for a pleasant stay overall.
If you're looking for a place perfect for a longer stay or with kids that's clean and spacious, this hotel is ideal. However, the rooms are in rough shape, dark, and outdated, which may not be to everyone's taste.
