The hotel has a superb location, right across the beach and near various attractions. The rooms were well-equipped, but some minor cleanliness issues existed. The service was satisfactory, and the hotel offers dry cleaning. However, the food quality and the need for daily room cleaning were drawbacks.

The hotel is ideally located directly opposite the beach and close to a theme park, making it convenient for exploring the attractions. The rooms are comfortable with a small window but come with ensuite bathrooms. The service at the reception desk is attentive, and dry cleaning service is available. The dining experience offers home-made local products. However, daily room cleaning and bed making were missed, affecting the overall comfort. The hotel is a great value for the money, considering its prime seafront location.
