My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, while not as clean as expected, had a nice outdoor restaurant view but was a bit noisy due to its proximity to the pool area. The service was exceptional, with staff being helpful, cheery, and accommodating to requests. The location was beautiful but had some noise issues from neighboring rooms. The dining options were decent, though could use improvement in variety and quality. The facilities were adequate.
