I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, just a short stroll to the beach and in the heart of the White town area. I was able to explore the city without the need for transportation. The hotel facilities and cleanliness were top-notch, and the breakfast was simply delicious. The warm and friendly staff made my stay even better.
Everything great.
