I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location near the beach is great, and the room I had was spacious and clean. Unfortunately, they were undergoing renovations which affected some amenities. The pool was small but immaculate, making it a decent place to relax. However, the absence of toiletries in the bathroom was concerning, and service could be better, especially for dining. Overall, it has potential once renovations are complete.

I was really let down by my experience at this hotel. While the location is excellent, the quality of the service and cleanliness was lacking. The food was subpar and not worth the price. The rooms left a lot to be desired, and overall, I wouldn't recommend staying here.

My experience at this hotel was extremely disappointing. The rooms were far from satisfactory with dampness and poor cleanliness, and the service was lacking with unhelpful staff. The location is great, but that hardly matters when the quality of everything else is so poor. I wouldn’t recommend dining here either, as it was subpar and unhygienic, making this hotel a regretful choice overall.

I was really looking forward to a relaxing day at this hotel, but it turned out to be a chaotic experience with poor organization. While the location is great next to a clean beach and offers beautiful sunsets, the dining options were very limited and not tasty. The staff seemed to do their best, but overall management failed to handle the crowd effectively. I wouldn't recommend this place for a nice outing.

My experience at this hotel was quite frustrating. While the location is good and the staff tried their best, the management was poorly organized and communication was lacking. This made our stay chaotic, especially during meal times when the buffet ran out of options. I wouldn't recommend it for an event or large gathering due to the awful management.

Saffron Hotel offers a pleasant day outing experience with a clean beach and a neat, although compact, pool. The rooms are spacious and tidy, and the staff is attentive to guests' needs. However, the hotel is currently under renovation, which affects its amenities and overall service. Dining options could use more variety to improve the experience.
