"We arrived at the hotel around 4 PM for two rooms, but one room wasn't ready until almost 6 PM. Honestly, I was quite surprised by the inefficiency; they really need to improve their speed. Upon entering the room, you could tell the hotel is a bit dated, and none of the facilities are smart. Our sea view room was located on a side with a vertical orientation, and the floor wasn't high enough, so we could only see a tiny glimpse of the sea diagonally. There are many outdoor pools and children's play facilities, but unfortunately, the water isn't heated. Due to the weather, we couldn't swim outdoors and had to use the indoor heated pool. The hotel provides sand-digging tools, and the beach is accessible through an underpass tunnel right outside the hotel. It was very crowded during the May Day holiday, but on a good day, you can still see the blue ocean. The hotel service isn't proactive; if you don't ask, they don't offer. I had noted in my order that we needed children's amenities, but they weren't in the room, so I had to call to have them sent up. Breakfast ends at 10:30 AM; the variety is quite rich, and the taste is decent. My child's favorite was Uncle Mario, who gave out balloons."
