Excellent stay

staff friendlinessdaily schedulevarious foodgreat variety

The staff showed great friendliness. The app included a daily schedule. I found many food options. The buffet stood out with variety. I appreciated the proximity to the beach. There was always something to do.

The lobby had elevated noise levels. The noise came from the coffee shop, bar, and reception areas. The roof seemed too low, or perhaps too enclosed.
