I appreciated the friendly staff who quickly addressed my concern about the room. The hotel's architecture is very beautiful, showcasing Victorian design. I was very pleased to receive a complimentary upgrade to a larger room, a nice surprise that enhanced my experience.
I found that the sound insulation between rooms was not very effective. I could hear noises from adjacent rooms.

Adequate Stay Overall

convenient locationtired decorunhelpful staff
The location is great as it is near the main areas. I liked that the hotel had many areas where you could relax. The garden area near the pool with the terrace overlooking the beach was very nice.
The decor looks a little bit tired and old. My room was very hot, that was not comfortable. rooms do not receive service during your stay. I found that the reception staff were not willing to help when I needed something.
