Great location , but can work on furniture and breakfast
Pros:

The roof furniture is outdated .
The breakfast option there is no value for money there. The buffet is more like a snack bar . How do u have a buffet without even basic scrambled eggs guys
Martha the receptionist did a great job looking after us .

Cons:

See above
Also the restaurant please can they spice up the menu different days for people staying for a long duration . The options at some point were tiring and had to order out

Great Location and friendly staff. Good breakfast option and room with beautiful views.
Pros:

Rooms are comfortable and bathroom is big. Restaurant served a good breakfast and the staff was friendly.
Great location close to the beachfront.

Cons:

Had some issues with the TV as no channels worked - but we were really so little in the room that we did not use it alot.
Hallway to the lift was dark from our room - could maybe improve ligting there.

Pros:

Location the most and the staff are very helpful

Cons:

The advertised luxury apartments on booking.com are different from what the hotel allocates you.
I had to reject the luxury apartment i was allocated first and insisted to be given the one as advertised. After a night, I was moved to the correct luxury room as per advertised pictures.
