The hotel is very beautiful in a nice location unfortunately they’re very close to clubs so plan accordingly and I recommend asking for a room in the middle of the building and to go when it’s not peak season, the staff is very helpful and very attentive. The hotel is literally steps away from the beach and they kept the room spotless. If you arrive by taxi, you can always schedule a taxi pick up the day before your departure and the front desk school arrange it.
