The hotel was in a convenient location, and it was very clean. They had a nice courtyard in the middle of the place, and a comfy tv room/movie theater. They also had free breakfast, and I was able to store my luggage until 1pm for free.

United States of AmericaThe location, the staff, and the breakfast were great. Their courtyard is a nice place to hang out. The rooms, common areas and washrooms were mostly clean. The location near the restaurants and the beach helps. My watch dropped from the upper bunk while sleeping, to the lower one and the cleaner gave it to the reception where they helped me promptly to find it.
