I had a superb time at the hotel, with its great location right by the beach and a cozy atmosphere. The rooms were spacious, bright, and had a lovely view of the beach, although they could use some better curtains. The service was professional and helpful, enhancing the overall experience. The dining options were good, offering healthy choices, but quite basic for a 4-star hotel. The facilities were convenient and well-maintained, making my stay pleasant.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms offered a superb view of the beach and were quiet, although not entirely soundproof as advertised. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, even changing our room promptly upon request. The location was amazing, just across from the beach with convenient access to beautiful beaches and essential amenities. However, I did notice some minor issues like the use of flimsy plastic glasses in the bathroom, which could have been improved. The dining experience was good overall, but there was room for enhancement in the quality of items provided during my stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of great experiences and some minor drawbacks. The rooms, despite a slight issue with the throw pillows that caused a bad smell, were always extremely clean and comfortable, with ample wardrobe and hallway space. The service was just wonderful, especially with the accommodating late check-in request. The location, overlooking the fantastic beach with the convenience of an underground car park, was a highlight, though the reduced menu at the cafe was a bit of a downside. The dining experience was okay but could use more personal attention, and the prices were higher than expected from the information provided in the room. Overall, spending money for a fantastic stay at this classy hotel with exemplary staff was worth it.

The hotel offers spacious rooms that feel almost like a small apartment and is conveniently located across from the casino. The service was a mix of unfriendliness and exceptional friendliness, with one particular staff member going the extra mile. The location was fantastic, ideal for beach walks and enjoying coastal views, although the dining experience fell short with cold breakfast items. The hotel lacked a bit in dining quality, but the view of the rising sun over the beach and coastal walks were unbeatable.
