The hotel is in a great location. Breakfast was really good for reasonable price. The rooms are a bit small but well appointed. Very nice pool area. The roof top bar was closed for the season. One criticism is the blow dryers connected to the wall in the bathroom. Just hate these.

The apartment was clean, air-conditioning was good. No door on toilet was more of an issue than expected, privacy was one thing, but being disturbed by light and noise anothe.. no fridge or coffee making facilities in room. There is a communal area with coffee making, and free bottled water in fridge but all rooms open onto it, so you need to be dressed...

Great location right next to the beach. The swimming pool area is fantastic and the staff were friendly. The only downside was that the room was making little electrical sounds during the night which was disturbing for a light sleeper.

I stayed at this property for 3 days.I liked that the beach was within walking distance from the hotel. I enjoyed the cafe con leche from the bar. The staff was helpful...but not very welcoming. The pool area was nice especially the two jacuzzis upstairs however the timer on them was malfunctioning.

Good hotel location

The hotel was in a great location a five minute walk from the beach. Good breakfast and nice pool beds and pool. Service was good overall. The rooms were nice and clean but they were not very soundproof. You could hear a lot of chairs being pushed and pulled around on balconies and people talking late at night which did not aid with good sleep. This is something that could hopefully improve.
