Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room setup was a bit off as it seemed designed for a single occupancy instead of the double/twin I had booked. On the bright side, the room had an interesting layout with different levels and an excellent variety of food options. The service was top-notch, with friendly staff who even prepared off-menu cheeseburgers for us right before closing time. The location, although a bit tricky to navigate at times, offered stunning views of the harbor and the sea. The dining experience exceeded my expectations, with the best hotel food I've ever had thanks to the availability of chocolate milk on tap. The facilities were great, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay.
