I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach, but the room was quite small and felt a bit stuffy with basic furnishings. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and helpful, even though I found the service pricing to be a little unclear. Overall, it's a decent option for a beach stay, but there are definitely some areas for improvement.

I had a mixed experience at the Crystal Blue Hotel. On one hand, the location is fantastic, just a short walk from the beach, and the garden area is lovely. However, the room cleaning was only done once a week, and I faced issues like a blocked wash basin and a noisy air conditioner. The breakfast was also quite repetitive, which was a letdown after a long day of travel.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, the location is fantastic—right by the beach and close to some great sites. The rooms were decent, although the pricing felt a bit off compared to the service provided. While I appreciated the clean rooms, the staff's behavior was a little concerning at times. Overall, it’s a good spot if you prioritize location, but there are some areas that could use improvement.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were reasonably sized and clean, but I faced a strange situation with pricing that left me confused. The staff was friendly overall, and the location right by the beach is a huge plus. However, the dining experience could use improvement, and some amenities seemed a bit lacking. It's a fair choice if you're looking for value near the beach, but don't expect everything to be perfect.
