I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was great with a lovely firm bed, but it was uncomfortably hot even when adjusting the temperature. The upgraded suite had beautiful views and a jacuzzi, which was a highlight. Breakfast options were limited and seemed to cater more to European tastes. The hotel's location overlooking the harbor and Adriatic was stunning, but the absence of beach access felt a bit claustrophobic.
