I was delighted by the hotel's location in a great area very close to the beach and restaurants. The service was top-notch, and I was even picked up from the airport, which was a nice touch. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with limited breakfast options. Overall, a good value for money stay with some room for improvement.
