Good hotel with good location. Staff were always attentive. Excellent view in the room and gorgeous view at the rooftop pool. Breakfast was good, with one local dish that changed every day. The only 2 issues I found are the following: 1) It mentioned the room has a “full-sized’ refrigerator. It was indeed a mini fridge, but it worked properly. 2) It is advertised as “on the beach” (2 minutes away). This is not true as it is indeed a 20-minute roundtrip walk, with an elevated pedestrian walkway to cross a main avenue. The 2- or 4-minutes’ walk indicated is not a safe option. Please note that the ONLY reason I chose this hotel was because the “on beach” location. We were working from the hotel and wanted to enjoy the beach as much as possible, which wasn’t the case because it was too far away. For this reason, I request a PARTIAL refund, as it was incorrectly advertised in the Expedia description.
