I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach and nearby restaurants, which was a huge plus. The rooms were clean and quite comfortable, too. However, I wish there were more options for breakfast, and the Wi-Fi not being included was a bit annoying. Overall, for the price, it was pretty good value for money.
