The location is excellent with a lot of shops and restaurants nearby. The reception staff were friendly and efficient. Breakfast was simple but nice. They made boxed breakfasts for us on the days on which we were leaving for trips early. The Wi-Fi was erratic. Sometimes you could stream a YouTube video and sometimes you couldn't even load a simple web page. The bathrooms were nice. Housekeeping was efficient and unobtrusive.

Very, very clean. The staff was exceptional. Great amenities- left water bottles for guests, one free drink per day, had a patio for guests to use by the water. Breakfast was a lot of variety. Would give a 10 pot of 10!!
