I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which boasted a great location near the beach and was surrounded by plenty of dining options. The rooms were clean and spacious, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. However, the breakfast offerings could use some improvement, and I found the Wi-Fi to be a bit pricey as it wasn’t included in the room rate. Overall, it was a great value for money, especially given the family-friendly amenities and the nice pool area.

I had a nice stay at this hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms and a very friendly staff. The location is great, being close to restaurants and attractions. However, the dining options could use some improvement, particularly at breakfast. I appreciated the facilities, especially the pool area, although it would have been perfect if the Wi-Fi was included in the price instead of being an additional charge.

This hotel boasts a fantastic location near the beach and dining options, making it extremely convenient for travelers. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was really welcoming. However, the breakfast selection could use some improvement, and while the pool was enjoyable, it wasn't as spacious as I'd hoped. Overall, the price is fair, but it’s a little frustrating that Wi-Fi isn’t complimentary.
