Excellent Stay! I had an amazing experience at this hotel from start to finish. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming — they went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect during my stay. My room was spotless, comfortable, and had all the amenities I needed. The bed was super cozy, and I loved how quiet the room was at night. The location was perfect — close to everything but still peaceful. The breakfast was fresh and delicious with plenty of options. I also appreciated how clean and well-maintained the entire property was. Overall, this hotel truly exceeded my expectations. I’ll definitely be staying here again and recommending it to my friends and family!

It did overlook the beach but it smelled like oil refinery plus mold. Apparently unsuccessfully they had tried to treat the mold by heavy chemical. I spent two nights of three night stay in that condition that triggered all kind of allergy symptoms and poor sleeping condition. Eventually on the third night there was a vacant room that they switched our room to a better condition room. Altogether it was a treacherous experience.
