The morning breakfast was excellent, and dinner from the restaurant was very good. Good location to walk and view the beach, but I don't believe the hotel had a private area in front of the hotel for guest use, as the pictures seem to suggest. It looked like a public beach to me.
The card lock on the door wasn't working and each time I left and came back from breakfast or outside, the card wouldn't work, I had to go get it re-run. After 24 hours of the same issue, I complained to the front desk and they sent a guy to fix it. Also the A/C wasn't cooling the first night and it was difficult to sleep. I also reported that, and they came to fix it later while I was gone the next day. On the last day, the water from the faucett was yellow when I turned it on to wash my face. That was disgusting. I had to use my bottled water to wash. I complained about that when I checked out and they said there were workmen fixing a problem from the roof. They should've notified guests of this, to not use the water between certain hours. The staff was very nice but this is more a 2 star hotel. I won't be back again.

The location. Many options for restaurants and shops to buy water and a few necessities. Easy to get a taxi. The beach in front of the hotel is nice.
Before you book here, keep a few realistic expectations in mind. The hotel itself is quite outdated. Breakfast was a daily headache—always overcrowded, with long waits just to get plates and silverware, and frequent food shortages. Overall, the experience didn't align with the price or the expected standard.

Disappointing
Just the location.!
The clean.! to noise! The check in was too slowly. The breakfast was horrible,breakfast staff was very unpleasant. And the food was disgusting. I just assumed they had no idea how to run a breakfast restaurant,and work to serve other. I’m giving 0 to then.

Location is prime to enjoy the beach. The breakfast is great. The bar is fully stocked and makes amazing drinks
The elevator is often busy in the morning. The stairs were the only way down

Only the water pressure in the shower but restroom was quite small
The staff could have been more friendly and understanding. I didn’t arrive until 2am and had to check out 10 hours later. I asked for a late check out due to my arrival and was told NO. I missed breakfast but couldn’t even get a cup of coffee.

The location next to the local restaurants, the historic forts, not too far from an excellent barber shop: Don Flex, taxi service literally at your doorstep.
Unfortunately, the towels were not the cleanest. I highly recommend bringing your own.
