the hotel's location was excellent, being right on the beach. a short walk got me to amazing nearby restaurants and shops. the cute drink at arrival was very nice!!! the staff aimed for a warm experience.

breakfast lacked proper bakery items, unfortunate. i also thought the bathroom materials felt somewhat cheap for a hotel of this reputation. it felt so very sad, really.
