I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were cozy with our own bathroom and a comfortable bed, providing a great night's sleep. The service was top-notch, and the location by the seaside and the sound of the nearby waterfall created a tranquil atmosphere. The dining experience was fantastic with delicious vegetarian couscous, and the facilities were excellent.
My stay at the hotel was truly delightful. The rooms were cozy and had our own bath, with a comfortable bed that made it hard to leave in the morning. The hotel had a limited number of tables, creating a more intimate dining experience. However, the price seemed a bit high compared to similar options.
