“This spot strikes me as a practical choice, especially for families or business groups; the meeting space is a real asset. I noticed the free breakfast and in-room kitchenettes could simplify longer stays, and its proximity to the beach is a definite plus. While hardly luxurious, the hotel seems a solid base for exploring the island.”
