I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, thanks to the amazing service from the manager who accommodated our early check-in and late check-out for free. The location was great, just a short walk to a clean beach, which was perfect for our visit. While the rooms were adequately clean, they weren't anything spectacular. Overall, it was a good value for the price, but the hotel could improve its breakfast offerings.
