nice pools convenient location friendly staff old rooms average breakfast noisy air conditioning
The pools are very nice. I spent a lot of time there. The location is also convenient. It is close to the beach. The staff was friendly. They were always ready to help.
The rooms are a bit old. The breakfast was average. Nothing really stood out to me. The air conditioning was quite noisy. It made it hard to sleep.
