My spouse and I stayed five nights in bungalow with kitchen #15. It was clean, had everything we needed, and a block from the beach. The area was definitely noisy at night, say 11 PM to 3 AM, since many people come to party. Believe it or not, we got good nights’ sleep here anyway. We would stay here again for the price point.

Awesome budget hotel, close to the beach, many food options close by. Staff really nice folks. Area pretty chaotic, looks beat up, no fault of the hotel. I noticed lots of garbage on the streets, unfortunately it was being created by the locals .

No window

All good but no real window in the room, just one that looked in to a hallway so curtains had to stay closed all the time. Made the room dark n gloomy.

The walls are so thin you can hear when the people next door turn over in bed. No loo paper, no towels, very noisy at night. Not very clean and couldn’t sit on the loo straight on as wall too close. Luggage was just left unattended for a one to help themselves to. No one there when I was told to turn up t for check in. The blue loo water was leaking all the way into the shower, it was gross.

Absolument horrible! Nous n'avons pas pus dormir là-bas puisqu'il n'y avait personne pour procéder à notre enregistrement. Nous avoms cherché l'hôtel pendant plus d'une heure car il n'y a aucune identification sur la porte d'entrée. Des habitants nous ont indiqué l'endroit. Une fois arrivé, nous avons cherché pendant une dizaine de minutes quelqu'un pour nous enregistrer, sans succès. Il y avait un numéro de téléphone sur la porte de la réception que nous avons appelé. Une personne a répondu puis a immédiatement raccroché sans rien dire. Une employée d'un restaurant à côté a appelé à plusieurs reprises le même numéro et quelqu'un a fini par répondre et lui dire qu'il arrivait dans 5 minutes. Plus de 30 minutes plus tard, toujours personne. L'employée du restaurant a rappelé plusieurs fois pour finalement se faire dire que nous devions prendre la chambre #9 car elle était débarrée et que nous aurions les clés le lendemain. En entrant dans la chambre, celle-ci était occupé. Nous avons donc fait demi-tour et sommes allés ailleurs. L'hôtel a refusé de nous rembourser et, malgré les nombreuses tentatives de communication avec eux, nous n'avons toujours pas eu de réponse près d'une semaine plus tard. Pour votre bien, allez ailleurs!
