    Cons -

    • Thought there could have been a microwave.
    • The glass sliding doors had lots of marks and the shower floor is old and isn't stuck to the floor properly. Would also be good if there was a microwave.
    • Noise from floor above

    Good location (actually the town is small, so all are good). The room is big enough and we enjoyed going around with both walking and car. Few steps to see the beach and restaurants nearby.

    A bit pricy during holidays, the washroom is not clean (still see hair on the floor) and the shower is fixed in overhead, no lift (in case you have many luggage ).

    9SarahPosted on: 12-10-2025

    Nice location, some nice modern touches like the bathroom smart mirror.

    The TV was a bit tricky and high up

    6MinhPosted on: 12-7-2025

    Location was probably the only positive outcome of the stay.

    Floor was not cleaned properly, sticky to walk on. Bathroom floor has water seeping out between the tiles. For over $500 a night you would expect MUCH more in terms of facilities and cleanliness.

    Balcony with a sea view, free laundry available, 5 min walk to the beach & restaurants

    Nobody at the reception, just cleaning personal

    8AmyPosted on: 11-3-2025

    Very convenient to shops and coast, walking distance to the main strip. Room has a nice view and was comfortable. Price was affordable

    Clean and good location. side but 5 minutes from center. Value for money

    We asked for another blanket which was refused by cleaner "not allowed"No view from window

    Self check was easy, bathroom was clean and I like having a sliding glass door. Bathroom was cold, but they had a heater which was great.

    We didn’t see the two other bed pillows until the next morning. They were behind the television. I wish they just put four on the bed. The other issue was the bottom sheet coming off the bed so I woke up and the sheets were off, which makes me feel gross. Bathroom made weird noises through the night.

    Excellent price. Clean and well maintained. Close to the hub and beach.

    Loud creaking and banging from the wood throughout the night. Other than that it was a great little place to spend two nights.

    10DanielPosted on: 4-28-2025

    Great location (a short walk to the beach, just down the road from the main shops), easy access, easy parking, excellent shower pressure (needed after the beach), comfy bed and you can hear the ocean as you drift off to sleep.
