I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was excellent, just a short walk from the boardwalk and beach, the rooms were fairly basic and in need of modernization. The staff was friendly, but I found the noise levels in the hotel quite distracting. Overall, it's decent value for money, but it could definitely use some improvements.

The hotel boasts a fantastic location, walking distance to the beach and shops. While the rooms are clean and suitable for a short stay, they don’t quite match the online photos. The service wasn't very attentive, but overall, it’s a decent option for a night if you don’t plan on using many amenities. A few essentials like toilet paper and coffee supplies were missing, which was a bit of a letdown.
