The rooms were spacious and very clean. The only downside was that the walls were extremely thin, allowing you to hear every little thing your neighbors were doing.

Paper thin walls. Refrigerator broke and wrecked special food. Employee walking around was scary, I thought he was a vagrant. I think he was pounding on our wall at 6AM like with a hammer, it was very loud and crazy.

Hotel staff were nice. The room was clean but they use a cleaner that has an artificial fragrance that's has a strong smell. You can hear the other people in their rooms and their TVs pretty easily. The location is convenient and close to good restaurants and very close to the beach which was the main reason why we stayed there. Overall, I would most likely return again. 👍
