I had a delightful experience at the hotel, appreciating its prime location right on the waterfront, just a short stroll from the Old Fort. The staff were exceptionally friendly, always checking in on me and ensuring my needs were met, which made the stay even more enjoyable. I particularly loved the wraparound balcony of my room that provided stunning views of the sea and the inviting pool.
