Nice, clean and comfortable place. Easy access to the beach and water pool. Tables and benches at the garden to eat and hang with family and friends. Average price. Hotel is no pet friendly, but if you talk to the administrator, he/she may allow it under certain conditions, like the permanent use of a lease; not bothering other clients, etc. I would recommend this place for a fun and laid back weekend.
