Très bon séjour.
Pros:

L’emplacement en front de mer est vraiment parfait. Le personnel très agréable, le petit déjeuner très bon.

Cons:

Selon la chambre le confort est très différent: chambre vue mer, baignoire pour nous, vue mur plus groupes de climatisation et petite douche pour nos amis. Le prix est le même mais le ressenti très différent

Pros:

Staff was helpful. Room clean and and well maintained for our second night

Cons:

It's a little dated, could be spruced up a bit considering its exceptional location. It was sad to see the condition of the out front hotel name signage.

Preis-Leistung inakzeptabel!
Pros:

Aussicht auf den Strand mit Palmen, Reception

Cons:

Zimmer zum Strand hin sind laut wegen einer gut befahrenen Strasse und Palaver.
Die Zimmer sind mehr als spartanisch eingerichtet, es fehlt jeglicher Komfort und sie haben keinerlei Aufwertung erfahren (im Gegenteil!), dafür hat sich der Preis wohl seit der Handänderung verdoppelt, was völlig überrissen ist.

Bad experience.
Pros:

Nothing won’t stay there again.

Cons:

Room AC didn’t work to cool the room. Toke all afternoon to resolve the situation.
Finally we were relocated after hours of complaining .

Honeymoon stay: Good location but disappointed overall with air conditioning unit broken and ignored
Pros:

Loved the view and loved the location.

Cons:

Staff were not coordinating properly with management and we were without air-conditioning for our entire 7-night stay (the room was WARM). They were alerted daily and always said something would be done but nothing was done.

They were kind enough to cover 1 of the nights for us but we feel more should have been done. Considering it was our Honeymoon, we were overall quite disappointed more wasn't offered back to us.
