We had a very nice stay at this hotel. Staff was friendly and the location is OK. You have to cross a big road to get to the beach, so walking is not recommended. Breakfast was good.

Breakfast was great! Lots of restaurants and night life close by. Beach is a quick 5 min drive. The building itself was a bit old. The hallway floors seemed to have holes under the rug so the floor was uneven. Bathroom was not cleaned carefully. Looks like previous guest hung a wet and sandy bathing suit from hook. There was dry sand and dried dirty drips down the back of the door.
