I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was superb, offering stunning views and easy access to both the beach and the city, the lack of soundproofing in the rooms and small bathrooms were noticeable drawbacks. The service was decent, and the dining options offered a variety of delicious cakes, but the cold meals were not very satisfying. Despite these shortcomings, the facilities were satisfactory, providing some comfort during my stay.
