Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciate the hotel's great location near the beach and the friendly service provided by the staff. However, many reviews mention that the rooms require updates and renovations, with issues such as mismatched furniture, inadequate bathroom facilities, and noise from traffic. Overall, while the cleanliness and atmosphere are praised, the value for the price is seen as lacking due to the condition of the rooms.
