I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the plus side, the rooms were spacious and had a lovely view of the beach and pool. The location was fantastic, being right by the beach, which made it great for relaxation. However, I encountered some issues with service regarding my room request and the air conditioning wasn't working, which definitely impacted my stay. Overall, the hotel has potential but needs some improvements.
