Reviews and Ratings
Absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was fantastic, just a stone's throw from the beach and surrounded by great dining options. The rooms were spotless and cozy, and the staff couldn't have been friendlier. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with limited breakfast choices. On the bright side, the pool area was delightful. The pricing was fair, but it would have been better if Wi-Fi was included.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and clean, and the staff was so attentive and friendly. The location was amazing, right in the heart of the city with easy access to everything. The dining options were delicious, especially the baked apples dessert. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
