The hotel offered direct access to the beach, a feature I really valued. The room was cleaned daily. There were several restaurants in the area, that provided dining options.

The furniture in the room was outdated. The air conditioning worked poorly and wasn't effective. The lift wait times were long due to the small size.

the location proved excellent right on the beach it was awesome. reception staff was super friendly i felt very welcomed. the food at breakfast and dinner i thought it was lovely and satisfying. the room had a brand new shower i was so pleased about it.

i did notice the number of sunbeds seemed less than the people wanting them. this made it difficult to find a good spot near the pool. i think more sunbeds is important.
