I had a pretty decent stay overall, with clean and spacious rooms and a very convenient location close to the beach. The staff was friendly and attentive, but the dining experience left something to be desired, especially during breakfast. The facilities were nice, but there were some minor issues that kept it from being perfect.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and the location was excellent for family activities. However, the rooms could use a thorough cleaning, and I did find some noise from the generator quite bothersome. Overall, it was comfortable enough for a short stay, but it doesn't quite meet the high standards I was hoping for.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel overall! The location is fantastic, with some nice spots around the area. The rooms are spacious, but they can be a bit noisy due to the hotel's generator running all the time. The dining experience, however, was a bit lacking, and the staff service was inconsistent. But the restaurant itself was great and definitely the highlight of my day!

The hotel had a great location with plenty of sunbeds around the pool and gardens, making it comfortable for relaxation. The rooms were spacious and cleaned daily, but the furniture felt outdated. The dining choices were quite limited and often lacked flavor.
