“The hotel's superior rooms impress with their comfortable beds and fantastic sea views, establishing a strong foundation for a pleasant stay. However, inconsistent dining experiences-ranging from slow service to underwhelming cocktails-suggest that attention to detail in the restaurant could elevate the overall experience. A focus on refining the food and beverage service could unlock the hotel's full potential, complementing its already appealing location and friendly staff.”
