Great place right on the beach. Gym is really nice and clean and has a great selection of exercise equipment. However, the temperature in the gym is hot. Couldn’t see where to turn it down so we propped open the door. Great views.

Equipment
A somewhat classic multi-gym at the center of the hotel gym allows for leg, chest and back exercises. The multi-gym has limited settings and appear a little worn out.  
On a positive note, there’s a fully functional cable machine with a great range of handles, etc. and dumbbells up until around 20kg.

Comments
Although it’s not claustrophobic as such, the hotel gym appears somewhat crowded with just a handful of visitors.
There’s background music playing, but in case you want to bring your own Bluetooth speaker and play your own music, the management seems ok with that.
The hotel gym is open 24/7 – you just need your room card to access the facility.
 
Based on the hotel gym, would you stay at this hotel next time you’re in the area?
Yes – it’s likely! It might not be a perfect hotel gym, but although the existing equipment has its limitations, it surely allows for a thorough workout.
