Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while quite clinical, had everything you needed, but the view facing inwards towards a wall was disappointing. The service was top-notch, with attentive and friendly staff. The location was ideal for exploring the old town and only a short walk from the new town and the beach. The dining was adequate, not particularly standout but with great staff. Overall, a decent stay with some notable highlights and drawbacks.
The hotel offers a fun and spacious experience for adults, with almost daylight-like rooms at night. The duty manager is very helpful, and the pool area, along with the lunch and drink menus, could use some improvement. An upgrade would be a great option for those who like it wet!
I had a fabulous outdoor space overlooking the main strip at the California hotel. The rooms were very modern and beautiful but quite small, which made it a bit loud at night, especially after a few drinks.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of the old town, just a short walk from popular bars, restaurants, shops, and the beach. The room was quite basic but had a charming balcony with a table and chairs. The only downside was the small wardrobe. The service was exceptional, with incredibly friendly and accommodating staff. The price was incredibly reasonable, and being able to keep the room for a late flight was a game-changer. The location was perfect, close to everything but still peaceful. The dining experience was decent, but room for improvement. Overall, a great value for what you get.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were quite noisy due to the late-night partying, and the location was convenient. However, the lack of toiletries was disappointing.
The hotel's rooms were quite basic with a small wardrobe and some noise during the evening, but they featured great artwork. The location was ideal for a solo traveler, close to the beach and the main town. The service, while friendly and accommodating in some aspects, was marred by staff arguments with guests. Overall, a convenient location with friendly staff, but with room for improvement in service and dining.
