Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms may need some maintenance, lack a view, and experience noise from the highway below. However, the staff is extremely helpful and kind. The location allows for easy movement around the city and provides a good view despite needing some love and attention.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room, although spacious and comfortable with amenities like an espresso coffee maker, required some minor repairs. Unfortunately, it faced east towards the harbor, resulting in a lot of traffic noise from the highway below, and missing out on enjoying the sunset. However, the service provided by the staff was incredibly hospitable and friendly. The location was convenient for exploring the city and beaches, as well as being surrounded by a beach. The dining experience left something to be desired with limited breakfast options, but the facilities were adequate for a pleasant stay.
The hotel has a great location, with easy access to the beach, restaurants, and bars. The staff is welcoming and friendly, but the service can be disorganized at times. The rooms offer a nice view but lack a bathroom, and noise from outside traffic can be heard, especially on higher floors. The dining experience is generally good, although service might be slow. The facilities are satisfactory, and the price is considered reasonable.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with lovely views of the port/city. The staff is welcoming and friendly, and the location is perfect for easy access to the beach, restaurants, and bars. However, the dining options could be better, and some amenities were forgotten after cleaning.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms felt small and basic, lacking proper amenities like a chair or table on the balcony, the twin beds provided a good night's sleep despite the noise from the main road. The outdated AC and low-quality toilet paper were noticeable drawbacks. On the bright side, the location was convenient, just a short walk from the beach and various dining options, with a complimentary shuttle from the airport. The service, although friendly, could be more attentive to guest needs and communication. Dining options were decent but a bit pricey for the selection available.
