I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the location was great with easy access to the beach, the rooms were quite outdated and not as comfortable as I had hoped. The staff were friendly, but the service could definitely use some improvement. Overall, it’s not terrible, but I feel it's not the best value for money considering the condition of the facilities.

The hotel has a great location for beach access, though it faces a railway track which may disrupt sleep. The rooms are spacious but in need of refurbishment, and while the pool area is well-maintained, the dining options could use more variety. Overall, it's a decent budget choice for those prioritizing affordability over luxury.

Overall, the hotel provided a clean and comfortable stay with friendly service. The proximity to the beach was great, but the dining options were quite limited, and the rooms need some updates. There were some inconveniences due to the nearby train tracks affecting the peacefulness of the stay, but the swimming pool area was a nice touch for relaxation.

Overall, my stay was quite pleasant, highlighted by clean rooms and a lovely pool. The staff were exceptionally accommodating, making me feel very welcome. However, the dining experience could have been improved with a wider variety of breakfast options. While the location is convenient, the proximity to the railway could be a downside for some.
