If you are looking for a budget room at a hotel right on the beach, with "nightlife" just below it, this hotel may be OK. The rooms were very clean and of a good size, however, the online photos make it look more luxurious than it really is and there is no sound insulation from the open hallways and the nearby bars. The hotel can be difficult to find, as it does not have a main entrance at ground level. A small elevator, or stairs take you from the poorly marked ground level garage to the checkin area and small lounge.
