Lovely quiet little hotel with a really good selection of food. Hotel staff were really friendly and super helpful, would definitely go again. The Strip, Old Town and Marina are all within a 10 minute Uber/Bolt journey, so it’s nice to spend the day in the busy touristy centre, then come back to a nice quiet area. The beach is also within a couple minutes walk from the hotel!!

Lo que más me ha gustado ha sido la playita que está a 5 minutos andando del hotel, es una maravilla y muy tranquila, el atardecer espectacular. En cuanto al hotel, un poco caro para el estado de las instalaciones, no cambiaron las toallas en los 4 días que estuvimos y solo nos pusieron una grande a pesar de ser dos personas. Camas cómodas y espaciosas y lugar tranquilo y agradable.

Desconectar de la rutina

Es un hotel antiguo pero está muy limpio, los trabajadores son muy amables. La piscina está muy bien y lo mejor sin duda es la ubicación de dicho hotel. El barrio es muy tranquilo y las playas están muy cercas.
