I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is simply amazing, making it easy to access the beach and nearby restaurants. The rooms are clean and elegantly decorated, giving a good vibe for a pleasant stay. However, the service was hit or miss, with some staff members being really friendly while others were quite rude and unhelpful. Plus, I found the dining options lacking, which was disappointing given the expectations for a five-star hotel.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While I really appreciated the great location and some of the friendly staff members, like Mr. Mamun and Mr. Ismael, the overall cleanliness of the room left much to be desired.

It did offer some family-friendly amenities, but many were closed, which was disappointing.
