I recently spent three nights at this hotel and had a wonderful experience. The blend of the original architecture with modern updates is impressive, and my room was spacious and comfortable. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from the beach and surrounded by great options for dining and nightlife. The only downside was that we didn't have the promised balcony, but the lovely seaside view from our small balcony made up for it. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for its charm and convenience.
