The pool was open, though construction trailers surrounding the area did seem inviting. The room itself had been totally renovated but the building and the office left a lot to be desired. Staff was friendly. Right across the street there is a selection of eateries and shops. Easy walk to to down nightlife and more restaurants and shops. The beach is also an easy walk.

Everything was just fine for me.

All staff on site was kind, friendly, and available if needed. I'll definitely stay here again in the future. Thank you! :-)))
