Our bathroom door wouldn’t close, plumbing was very very noisy, internet wouldn’t work, view was of dirty pigeons on a roof top. Food way too expensive and pool closed way too early.

Love the location with walking distance to the towns amenities. The lift on our end was left with a lip (not level floor when stopped at our floor) we kept tripping. Room booked was meant to be oceans views and it was more street view. That was disappointing for us. Room itself was roomy but no where except lounge to put our luggage. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

One has to be extremely careful in the underground car park as the ceiling is extremely low with pipes hanging very low. Otherwise the hotel is conveniently situated for walking to the beach or main street.
