I had an overall okay experience at this hotel. The location was absolutely fantastic, just steps away from the beach and close to several attractions, which was a big plus for me. However, the rooms felt a bit outdated and could use some deep cleaning. The service wasn't very friendly, which was disappointing, and the dining options were quite basic. On the bright side, the heated pool was a nice feature.

I stayed at this hotel and found it to be in a prime location, just steps away from the beach and everything the area has to offer. The rooms were decent, with a well-stocked kitchen, but noise from the road and nearby boules park did disturb my sleep a bit.
