unregulated heatlacking breakfast

I must say, the room temperature was a real issue. neither the staff nor i could seem to get it regulated. It was persistently too hot. this. also, the breakfast buffet, while extensive, left something to be desired when compared to other hotel offerings. it seemed like some basic elements were missing.

My room had views of mountains and horses. I liked that the hotel sits across the street from a black beach. The game room included table tennis, darts, and a pool table. I enjoyed the hotel lounge upstairs to chat with people.

My west-facing room became quite warm even with the window open. The hotel should improve this.
