The location, staff service, and in-room amenities and facilities were all excellent. As many reviews mention, aside from the outside noise being quite noticeable, it was a great value for the price. Free parking was also a big plus.The staff were especially kind, which made my stay even more enjoyable throughout.

We had a room on the 8th floor overlooking the canal, golf course and mountain which was so much better than our last stay with a city view ( which has the sun on the balcony all afternoon and very hot). The staff were fantastic and the location was very handy to the beach and public transport.
