5.8/10

The hotel is in a nice location for beach access, but that's where the positives stop. The rooms were outdated and not well-maintained, making for an uncomfortable stay. I had issues with the amenities, like the air conditioning, and the overall value for what I paid felt incredibly lacking. It's clear that improvements are needed, and I wouldn’t consider returning unless significant upgrades are made.

6.0/10

This hotel has a stunning location with great ocean views and is close to the beach and restaurants, making it an ideal choice for visitors looking to enjoy local attractions. However, the noise from other guests can be quite bothersome, detracting from what would otherwise be a pleasant stay. Additionally, the room conditions left much to be desired, lacking proper upkeep and comfort. While there are nice amenities like the hot tub, the issues with noise and room quality make it hard to fully recommend.

Rooms

5.0

My room was somewhat updated but still showed signs of neglect. It could have been cleaner, and there were several broken items and noise issues that disrupted my stay.

Service

6.0

I experienced mixed service; while some staff were friendly and helpful, my concerns about noise were not addressed satisfactorily.

Location

The hotel is located right by the beach and within walking distance to various attractions, which I really enjoyed.

Dining

The breakfast selection was quite limited, with only basic items that could have been improved.

Facilities

The facilities were decent, with a nice hot tub available, but overall cleanliness and maintenance need attention.
