My stay had its ups and downs.

Our stay at the hotel was quite pleasant, especially with the vibrant location close to the marina and the inviting pool area. The rooms were comfortable, though a bit noisy with people coming and going. The breakfast was a real standout, offering a fantastic spread.

We were pleasantly surprised by our stay! The hotel's location was perfect, just a short walk to everything we needed, including the wharf and dining options. Our room was lovely, and the pool area was a fantastic feature, especially for late-night swims. However, we experienced some noise from the air conditioning, which was a bit bothersome.
