A little dirty and dated. Sheets and pillow on bed were stained yellow. Breakfast pancakes and waffles did not taste fresh. Not much atmosphere going on. Location not far from beach and shops.

Very friendly staff, clean modern rooms. Only some rooms have air con, mine was quite hot most nights. Range of activities is good. Wish the social spaces were less disjointed and used more.

It was nice . Great staff. Clean and breakfast included. The problem was that it's a hot summer and there was no AC in my room. I couldn't sleep and was up wandering most of the night. It spoiled my next day. There was no relief from the oppressive heat and eating in a steaming kitchen was not appealing. For the cost there really should be more comfort. I won't be back.
