It’s doesn’t have any coffee bar in the room, nor free water. Checking in also took a long time. Aside from those, the hotel is nice.

A lovely hotel just one block back from the beach. The rooms are spacious and clean. The roof top bar and pool are great. My only slight negative is the staff at the roof top bar weren’t very friendly and I had to go to the bar to order food even though they were just stood around chatting. Reception staff were great.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel was fine overall and we appreciated being allowed to use the pool before check-in. However, for a 4-star property the service fell short. No bathrobe or slippers in the room, breakfast I had paid for was not honored at check-in, and staff didn’t mention that beach chairs and umbrellas were included—I only found out from other guests. Communication needs improvement.
