8.4/10

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. On the positive side, the rooms were luxurious, perfect for a family of 4-6, but the view of the parking lot and plastic chairs outside were not ideal. The service was accommodating, especially when we had more people than expected, yet the dining options could be improved. The location, right across the street from the beach and close to downtown restaurants, was a definite highlight. However, the lack of a grill and limited breakfast selection were minor setbacks.

My daughter and I had a great weekend at the beach thanks to this hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfy, but it was a bit frustrating not being able to get a blanket promptly or request help with our luggage. The service was extremely hospitable and friendly, making our stay even more enjoyable. The location was excellent, with easy access to the beach and the city center. However, the dining options could use a bit more variety. Overall, it was a pleasant stay with some minor inconveniences.

The hotel offers clean and spacious rooms with gorgeous ocean views, though the exterior resembles a run-down motel. The stay was comfortable and tidy, providing a fun jacuzzi bathtub experience. The location is perfect, being just a minute away from the beach and a few minutes from various amenities. The dining options are simple but sufficient, ideal for enjoying a meal in the room or garden.
