    The staff are very friendly, but however, we had to be moved as the room requested did not have double bed and was smoking. However, they did their best to accommodate us. The only problem was late on both nights, the occupants of room 817 was extremely noisy until all hours of the morning.

    Room was very clean, neat and comfortable.

    The hotel is situated right opposite the taxi rank which was extremely noisy with the hooting of vehicles during the early hours of the morning, thus not allowing for much rest.

    The room was excellent. Perfect for business travel and self catering facilities were very useful.

    The breakfast was poor and not value for money. The yogurt was fizzy and options were limited.

    Perfect Family Getaway Near the Beach!

    We enjoyed a nice stay with our family, withsuper clean and cozy rooms just a stroll from the beach. The staff members were helpful, our needs were met. Don't miss the on-site dining, especially the delicious breakfast options that fueled our days. Parking at the back made things easy!
