My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, right across from the beach and close to dining options. However, the noise from the bar was disruptive, and the dining options could use improvement. While the facilities were decent, I had mixed feelings about the customer service and overall value for the price.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at this hotel. While the location is decent, just a short walk from the old town, the level of cleanliness and service could use some improvement. The room was comfortable, but I was disappointed not to find basic amenities like tissues and bottled water. The dining experience left a lot to be desired, especially the breakfast options and the quality of the evening meal. Overall, it seemed like the hotel could use better management and attention to detail.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, enjoying the spacious room with a nice view, but it was a bit of a trek to the Medina for dining and exploration. The breakfast selection was impressive, and the pool area was fantastic for relaxation. However, certain aspects like the dining options during dinner need improvement, and the service could use a little more attentiveness.

My stay at the hotel was quite a mix. On the plus side, the location was fantastic, right on the beach with a beautiful sea view. The sea view room was spacious and clean, making for a comfortable stay. However, check-in was a hassle, taking over an hour, and the service felt quite lacking, particularly when I faced issues with uncleaned rooms. Overall, it had both highs and lows, but I can't overlook the forgotten towels in my room.
