A great spot straight across from the water. Rooms are clean, sizeable and parking is ample. Check in and check out was simple and effortless.
Will stay again.
Late checking super easy. Room was super clean, staff wasn’t there but super responsive by email.

The accommodation benefits greatly from its convenient location, which was the highlight of our stay. However, this positive aspect was somewhat overshadowed by issues with the air conditioning, as well as concerns regarding the cleanliness and an unpleasant odour in the room. While the location is ideal, these areas require attention to enhance the overall guest experience.
The room was a nice size and is walking distance to everything. The bed was comfortable but the room just seems slightly worn.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Overall, good accomodation having a family room which gave plenty of space, was reasonably modern and presented well. Unfortunately the overall experience was marred by a shower head that was broken, not giving a constant flow of water.
