Pros:

ビーチに近く、歩いて行ける範囲にカフェやレストランが多くあり便利。部屋も清潔で、チェックインも簡単でした。

Cons:

2ベッドルーム+2バスルームの部屋を予約したのに、2ベッドルームでバスルームが1つしかない部屋を割り当てられた。ベットについては何も希望を出してなかったが、宿泊前日にホテル側から電話があり、2キングベットがいいか、1キングベット&2シングルベットがいいかと聞かれたので、2キングベットと答えたが、それはあくまでも2バスルームが前提の話しで、ベットのタイプは希望でしかないのに、部屋に入ったらバスルームは1つしかなくて、非常にびっくりした。すぐにホテル側に連絡したら、2バスルームの部屋に変更してくれたが、長時間の運転の後で疲れていたので、非常にがっかりした。2バスルームで予約していたら、ベットのタイプよりもそちらが重要であると宿泊者が考えていると理解するべきだと思う。ベットのタイプはあくまでも希望です。宿泊者の意向がはっきりしなければ、宿泊者に連絡して確認するべきです。部屋割りをする担当者はもっと慎重になってほしい。ロケーションも良く、部屋も綺麗なので、残念です。
