My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The beach experience was lovely thanks to the friendly beach manager, and the room was cleaned daily. However, the dining experience left much to be desired, with limited food options and cleanliness issues. Overall, it's a place for those looking for budget-friendly travel, but not without its challenges.

I had some ups and downs during my stay at this hotel. The rooms varied in cleanliness and comfort, which was a bit of a letdown. On the plus side, the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, making my experience somewhat enjoyable. The location was a mixed bag, bustling but a bit chaotic. The dining options could definitely use some improvement, as they were often repetitive and not very appealing. It felt like I got what I paid for, but there were several areas that need attention.
