Location Works for Most Travellers
While not directly on the beach, that didn't seem to bother travellers. In fact, it was somewhat of a perk to be off the beaten path. Visitors cite that it's still within walking distance of the beaches, shopping and restaurants. Plus, the hotel does offer a shuttle that takes people to various areas, which was appreciated.

Some Maintenance Hiccups

Noise Levels Might Be an Issue
Visitors mentioned that the walls seemed pretty thin so you're able to hear everything around you. According to visitors, just to be on the safe side, it would be a horrible idea to bring along some earplugs.
