Categories

Cleanliness
8
Rooms frequently described as clean and well kept, but several reports of musty rooms, clogged drains and trash/odors in hallways indicate inconsistent cleanliness standards.
Service
8
Many guests praised friendly staff and helpful front desk, but there are multiple reports of unhelpful or unfriendly staff and poor handling of a serious incident, which lowers confidence in consistency.
Location
9.5
Consistently praised: prime location, short walk to the beach, restaurants and shopping. A few guests noted expectations about beach proximity that differed, but overall location sentiment is very strong.
Room Quality
7.5
Mixed room quality: comfortable beds noted, but issues include low shower pressure, non-working showers, musty rooms, doors that don't close tightly and other maintenance concerns affecting comfort and safety.
Amenities
9
Amenities generally convenient (close to shops, on-site basics), though some guests reported missing items (coffee machine delivered only after request, occasional lack of pool towels). Overall amenity availability is good but inconsistent.
Value for Money
9
Multiple reviewers explicitly mention good price and value; several describe the price as a highlight of the stay.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast receives both strong praise (exceptional/very good) and complaints (hot food running out, no coffee/eggs/yogurt at times). Overall F&B is generally positive but inconsistent.
Overall Experience
9
Many guests report excellent stays, plan to return and highlight staff, location and breakfast. However, noise issues, inconsistent breakfast service and at least one serious safety/management incident temper the overall experience.

My stay was unsatisfactory. They could do better. Need to upgrade site about location of the beach.
Cons:

The location was not close to the beach. The shower did not work. Noise all night I stayed. The hallway had trash and also the property. The breakfast was not good.
