Wonderful hotel
Pros:

Really nice location, in walking distance from the beach and other major attractions with just a short ride on the metro to get to others. All the staff were very friendly and helpful and the hotel in general was very clean and welcoming. The breakfast buffet had a huge amount of choice and everything I had was tasty! Certainly worth the money in my opinion.
I had a room on the 6th floor with a balcony that had impressive city views and gave an extra bit of space. Overall really enjoyed my stay and would return and recommend to others.

Cons:

The only real fault would be the air conditioning unit in my room. It was quite loud and I ended up turning it off because of the sound. The road outside the hotel is extremely busy (though less so at night) so it may bother you if you're a light sleeper.
