decent stay

fresh fruitpastriesbeach towelscomfortable sunbedsold showersewage smellfirm mattress
the breakfast options included fresh fruit and pastries. the staff provided beach towels daily. the pool area was clean and well-kept with comfortable sunbeds. i saw security personnel present on the grounds at night.
the shower in my room was quite old. there was a noticeable sewage smell near the entrance. the noise from nearby bars was sometimes disruptive at night. i found the mattress to be too firm for my liking.

great poolsewage smelloutdated room
The breakfast was acceptable. The pool and lounging areas were nice.
The location outside the hotel felt unsafe, as men constantly approached us when walking to the beach. there was a strong sewage smell, especially noticeable when eating at the restaurant. also, the room was outdated. The cleanliness was not up to par.
