The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms with a view of an orange fence. It would have been perfect if they had a swimming pool for rainy days. The service was exceptionally pleasant and welcoming but lacking in some areas. The location was excellent, especially for pet owners, but could benefit from additional amenities like a working fireplace and hot tub. The dining experience was satisfying but had some issues with value and menu limitations. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.

This hotel is a gem by the beach with great views for the perfect sunset photo. The rooms, despite feeling a bit cramped and hard, are spotless and offer a cozy fireplace. The service is hit or miss, with some staff being warm and efficient while others fall short. The location is stunning but comes with a hefty price tag. Dining options are tasty but come at a premium. Despite some flaws, the facilities are top-notch.
