Multiple reviewers repeatedly mention very clean rooms and a clean pool; comments like 'very clean' and 'rooms were clean' indicate strong cleanliness standards.
Service
7.9
Many guests praised staff (friendly, accommodating, early check-in, Matthew called out by name), but a notable negative incident about an unhelpful/rude staff member who gave incorrect information lowered the score slightly.
Location
9
Location is frequently praised — short walk to the beach, 'perfect location' for activities and 'superbe plage à proximité immédiate' noted by multiple reviewers.
Room Quality
7.2
Mixed comments: some call the rooms and bedding excellent, others report beds sinking in the middle and poor shower pressure; minor safety/comfort issues like no bathtub slip mat were mentioned.
Amenities
8
Pool is a consistently highlighted favorite and HBO availability noted; free parking and accessible pool entrance are positives, but issues reported with parking availability, gate/key security and limited nearby restaurants temper the score.
Value for Money
8.8
Several reviewers explicitly state 'great for the price' or 'bon rapport qualité prix' and overall feel that the hotel delivers good value.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast is commonly described as good with acceptable variety (some specific positives like red potatoes), though a few guests found it only 'okay'.
Overall Experience
7.7
Overall sentiment is positive (many repeat visitors, favorite pool, friendly staff), but recurring issues (occasional rude staff, parking/gate problems, inconsistent room quality) reduce the overall impression.

Stay was great except for the ride and un knowledgeable Hispanic guy that was dressed so nice but knew NOTHING and HE wa
Pros:

Clean

Cons:

Hispanic staff member didn’t give correct information about parking lot being painted and when we would be able to park our cars, we also asked him for ice and he said there is NO ice but we went up to second floors and there was ice!! So frustrating. He was Hispanic and well dressed in slacks and a vest with long sleeved white shirt and I wish I could remember his name but he was rude and should NOT be working in hospitality as he was far from hospitable. He works the DAY shift. The black guy that works the front desk was VERY NICE and so was the heavy set white man that checked us in I think his name was Matthew.
