The staff were so kind to us. This created a warm environment, with good service. I found a nice location near the beach and the town. The facilities were also great.

I experienced mixed feelings at the hotel. Sometimes our food felt lukewarm. There was a microwave to heat food. The snack bar was not good at all.
