Great location, very close to the beach. Disappointed to pay for breakfast upfront, only to be told that 'they' are now charging to make an omelette. Seems ridiculous and unnecessary.

Good property. Firmer mattresses would be appreciated as they are extremely soft. Hotel information and area information either in electronic format on the TV as an option OR an old fashioned printed guide. There was no information about the hotel services, dining or area information for newcomers to the hotel and area. Shower leaked across the bathroom floor.
