I had an overall pleasant stay at Golden Sands Boutique Hotel, but there were some noticeable drawbacks. The staff was friendly and attentive, which definitely made my experience better. However, the decor felt quite dated and the room showed signs of wear that detracted from the comfort I was hoping for. Additionally, while the rooftop pool was lovely, accessing it was a bit of a challenge due to the steep stairs. Overall, I enjoyed my time there, but there's room for improvement.
