The hotel was very clean and had a great atmosphere. The staff at the front desk were exceptionally kind and professional — their hospitality really stood out. I was lucky to have a room with a view of the ocean, and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. I had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this hotel to others.
