The hotel provided a spacious room with nice greenery outside, which was a pleasant surprise for the price I paid. However, the hallway leading to my room was a bit dirty and had an issue with bugs. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which added to the overall experience, but I did notice that the service could have been more engaging throughout my stay.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and offered a lovely view of the garden which was a nice touch. However, the service was lacking, as my room wasn’t cleaned after the first day of my stay and it felt like the staff was avoiding us. The location was convenient, right by the beach, and overall provided decent value for money, even if there were some issues that could be improved.

The hotel had a lot of potential with its spacious and clean rooms boasting lovely garden views. The friendly staff made for a pleasant check-in experience, but unfortunately, the dining options were unsatisfactory, which brought down the overall impression. While the location was decent and close to the beach, I was left wanting for a few more amenities to make my stay truly enjoyable.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were spacious, tidy, and offered a lovely garden view, reaching them was quite the journey through a construction site and a dirty hallway, which definitely detracted from my stay. The staff was friendly and accommodating, but the location was a little rough around the edges. Overall, it’s a decent choice for the price, but be prepared for some inconveniences.

The hotel offers a conveniently located spot right at the surfing area, making it easy to enjoy the local beach and activities. The rooms are spacious and have a lovely sliding door opening to greenery, but they could certainly use some maintenance as there were issues like dampness. The staff is friendly and accommodating, although there’s room for improvement in hotel management. Overall, for the price, it feels like a decent value, but there are areas that need attention.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is fantastic, just a stone's throw from the beach, perfect for surfers. While the staff were friendly, I felt they could use a bit more training. The rooms were quite luxurious and spacious, which I appreciated, but the dining left much to be desired with cold buffet options. Overall, it was good value for the price, but there are definitely areas for improvement.
