Reasonable stay near the beach

friendly staff spacious room fresh fruit outdated fitness center low water pressure

The staff was friendly and helpful. My room was spacious and clean. The breakfast buffet offered a variety of options. I especially liked the fresh fruit. The hotel's proximity to the beach was convenient, and it was only a short walk.

The fitness center was outdated. Some equipment was not working. The water pressure in the shower was low, and it took a while for the water to heat up. SLEEPING was difficult.

The breakfast offered fresh eggs, hot choices, pastries, fruit, and yoghurt. There were two large pools with ample sun beds and umbrellas. Music was played. It had a great vibe.

The traffic noise was quite loud because my room was close to the road. The rooms weren't that clean. The hot water ran out quickly.
