My stay at Dreamcatcher Hotel was quite the mix. I loved the spacious room with two gigantic beds and a lovely balcony overlooking the well-maintained garden, and the location was perfect, just a few steps from the beach. However, there was ongoing construction noise that started early in the morning, which made it hard to relax during the day. Overall, it was a decent experience but could have been more enjoyable if it weren't for the distractions.
