Very nice hotel by the beach with nice options to enjoy but in a gated community which makes access to amenities in the community difficult.

Needs improvements!
The room was dated and had old furniture. The paint was chipping and discolored. The room was neat, but don’t look clean. There were 2 roaches. The staff was friendly, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

Look away!
The hotel looks old, door frame corroded and front door won’t closed. Pools and jacuzzi were dirty all the time, and if it will be raining all outside drain will clogged for two days.

Perfect for working half days on the patio and training the rest for bike tour. WiFi was perfect with no issues during zoom meetings or planning bike routes. Staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. Pool and access to public beach. Gym was perfect. Food at the embassy suite was delicious.
