beach location friendly staff good size pool
The pool's location right next to the beach was lovely. The staff were friendly and helpful. The pool was a good size and it had plenty of loungers, but I wish there were some tables and chairs around the pool. I enjoyed the pool and beach bar!
The room seemed a bit old and I feel it lacked a little cleanliness.
