Hotel bem decorado
Pros:

Fica ao lado do pier, muito bem localizado. É um hotel super "descolado", bem decorado, no estilo praia.

Cons:

O café da manhã é a la carte, e não por pessoa como consta na descrição. O estacionamento estava custando 68 dólares, mas tem estacionamento público muito perto, ao custo de 20 dólares durante a semana, só que a diária vira à meia-noite, então entrando à tarde e saindo de manhã são duas diárias

Cons:

לא היה מים חמים במקלחת! הבטיחו לסדר , דבר שלא קרה לאורך כל השהות וגם לא עונים לבוקינג אחרי שאמרו לנו שיהיה לנו זיכוי מלא! גרוע ומחיר גבוה למה שהם נותנים

Pros:

El hotel disponía de una gran cantidad de servicios para disfrutar de los días en la playa: sillas, sombrillas, tablas de surf, skate, toallas...

Cons:

Durante nuestra estancia (3 noches) no tuvimos agua caliente ningún día debido a una avería. Fue un gran inconveniente y no nos dieron ninguna alternativa.
