I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was fantastic, steps away from the beach and beautifully maintained. However, the room I stayed in seemed old and not worth the price. The service was friendly but a bit pushy at times, and the dining was disappointing with stale pastries. The facilities were decent overall.

The hotel is situated right on the Gulf, offering a great location to enjoy the sunset and the beach. The rooms were a bit musty with limited natural light, but having a separate bedroom was convenient. The service was a mix of great experiences with some delays and attitude issues, while the dining provided some nice touches but lacked variety in breakfast options.
