I had a wonderful time at this hotel. The location is simply amazing, right on the beach and next to a popular restaurant. The rooms were cozy and had everything I needed, including a refrigerator, microwave, and plenty of soap. The queen size bed was super comfortable. The service was top-notch, with our reservation handled perfectly. However, the dining options were not included in the rate, which was a bit of a downside. The facilities were great, and I enjoyed my stay despite the dining issue.

The hotel was conveniently located right on the beach, offering a great view and easy access to a popular restaurant nearby. The rooms were spacious and modern, equipped with a queen size bed, refrigerator, and microwave, although the limited supply of soap was a minor downside.
