Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Everything about this hotel was perfect. The staff was so accomodating and let me check in upon arrival, which was clutch since I took a red eye in that morning. The room was good size and clean. The room had AC but it also had a window that opened easily. I preferred the fresh air and only used the AC at night. Fasntastic location, a few minute walk to the beach. I’ll caveat that I wasn’t a huge fan of the breakfast. I paid for it the first day but ate in town the subsequent days.

Very friendly helpful staff. Easy parking. Very centrally located. We liked the choice of not having the room serviced for one night and having a free drink at the bar instead.

The hotel is charming and located in an excellent part of town, with transit to the airport just outside the door. The rooms are modern and comfortable, and the hotel is very clean. The staff is lovely!! Silvie at the front desk was always warm, friendly and very helpful!!! There are nearby restaurants and a nice bakery, but the central part of town is just a short walk! The WiFi worked well. Don’t hesitate to stay here!
