amaziiiing ocean getaway!

ocean locationbathroom kitbreakfast variety
i found a super location near the beach and bus stops. the rooftop terrace had lovely views, and i enjoyed the convenience! the bathroom was the best! it had a great vanity kit including toothbrush, toothpaste, and even a sewing kit! woohoo!
the breakfast, while good, felt monotonous! there wasn't much variety, and i couldn't request different types of eggs beyond scrambled! next time, i hope for more options.

Excellent Stay

amazing viewequipped gymgood kit
The rooftop bar offered amazing views of the Atlantic (I spent several evenings there). The gym featured dumbbells and exercise machines. The room had a good vanity kit with a toothbrush, toothpaste, and sewing kit. I found the location convenient for accessing the beach and traveling into town.
The hotel's decor felt a bit outdated.

The hotel is located outside the city center. It is close to the promenade, beaches, and beach bars. Transportation options are conveniently available nearby (I used the bus).
