great location cooking station spacious room loud music little privacy unfriendly staff
The location was great , near the marina and beach areas. Breakfast had many choices , including a live cooking station. The room was spacious and clean , with a nice balcony.
The music at night was very loud , continuing until late. The shower and sink were in the bedroom , with little privacy. Some reception staff were not as friendly as others , especially some of the male staff.
