mixed experience with some disappointments

lovely sea viewloud musicaverage meal
the room had everything i needed , and the breakfast room offered a lovely sea view.
i found my evening meal not worth the price , it tasted pretty average. there was live music , it was so loud during our meal that i could barely hear the others at my table. i was also kept up until 1:30 am because of the music volume , and i felt the room shaking.

The parking was convenient. The hotel is located directly on the beach. Breakfast included eggs royale and it was very good perhaps even better than some 5-star establishments.
The music was loud over our evening meal making it difficult to hear each other.
