Hotel Location
Guest Reviews & Ratings
The hotel was conveniently located near popular attractions and had small rooms with some missing amenities, but it provided a mini fridge for convenience. The service was inconsistent, with some staff being unhelpful and flirtatious, causing delays. While the location was central, the nearby noisy bar could disturb guests. The dining options were limited and repetitive, affecting the overall experience.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room I had, although not what I expected, was decent, with two large beds. However, being located right next to the reception and pool meant constant noise disturbances at night, making it hard to sleep. The service was a bit of a hit and miss; while some staff were very helpful and thoughtful, others seemed preoccupied with socializing. The location was excellent for exploring the area but marred by loud music from a nearby establishment. The dining experience ranged from poor service with long wait times to high-quality home-cooked meals. The facilities were average overall.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was great, just a few steps away from the vibrant 5th Avenue and close to the beach. The rooms were decent with two large beds, but unfortunately, my room was right next to the reception and pool, making it noisy and challenging to get a good night's sleep. The breakfast left much to be desired with only a watered coffee and minimal toast provided. However, the service was friendly and helpful, especially the young man in the evenings. Overall, it was a mix of positives and negatives worth considering.
