Room was clean and staff helpful, close to shops and take away places. Onsite Dinning was fine but found only one staff member to handle all orders and service although done pretty well under the circumstances.

Great little beachfront spot, and perfect for a long weekend getaway. Wifi wasn't the best, and a strange cumbersome process regarding payments, but otherwise a great stay and would stay again.

I wasn't able to use my balcony because the people next door were smoking on theirs most of the time. They were extremely noisy, waking me up to smoke at 12:30am and 5am. I would hope you could put an actual wall between balconies to give appropriate privacy.
