Solid Stay with Excellent Service

helpful staff quick service fine view clean pool
The staff was consistently helpful. I appreciated the quick service in all areas of the hotel. The location is near many local attractions. The hotel offered fine coastal views. I enjoyed the free indoor swimming pool. The pool was clean and well-kept. I found the outdoor area quite nice. There was a bar that provided an excellent panoramic view. My room had attractive furnishings. It had an adequate shower room. The room provided sufficient space for our needs. We found the provided books to be a nice touch. The breakfast offered a decent selection. I appreciated the well-cooked items and the clean dining area. The staff seemed to handle busy times effectively. The lounge area downstairs was spacious.
The tower air unit made little difference to the comfort of the room.

The staff demonstrated excellent knowledge of the local area and gave helpful directions when needed. All staff worked brilliantly, even when they were very busy with many guests arriving at the same time, which I thought was excellent.

dangling tv cables uncomfortable mattress
my room, the standard single room, it felt cramped. i think the tv cables just hanging across the dressing table look awful. i reminded me of the mattress was really old and wasn't comfortable at all. it made sleeping difficult, and that is not good when you're trying to relax.

an adequate stay, i suppose

disinterested staff poor service
The location was alright. It was a short walk to the beach.
the food situation was odd. i tried to eat at the hotel, but they claimed the restaurant was "fully booked" with only 50 people (i'm not sure how that works). the staff seemed rather disinterested in helping, and it was like they just couldn't be bothered (which, honestly, i can relate to).
