"We had the chance to change our first room, to a bigger one. It is a loft with much more space and light. It had a hammock in the middle of the loft, a big closet, perfect bathroom, and its independent from the rest of the rooms. We knew we were far away from the beach, but it was walking distance if you like to walk or jog. In the early morning it can be noisy, however not that much. Breakfast was delicious. The pool is big enough to swim and its clean and fresh. The highlight of this hotel is...
