We stayed at this hotel for a short trip and found it to be a decent budget option in a fantastic location. The room was quite small, but it had everything you would need for a basic stay. One downside was the bedding, the pillows were very thin, so I’d recommend bringing your own if you’re particular about comfort. The bed was advertised as a queen, but it felt closer to a double, which was a bit disappointing. Unfortunately, another issue was that our room was not cleaned during our stay, which was disappointing and took away from the overall experience. Breakfast was included and, while fairly basic, it was still a nice bonus. There were options like eggs, bacon, and fresh fruit, which was enough to start the day. Overall, while I probably wouldn’t stay here again, it’s a good choice for travellers looking for an affordable place in a great spot close to shopping centres and the beach.

Limited breakfast but it was included so not going to complain. There was enough for what you would need. Nice clean room, very nice hotel. Great spot, no complaints at all. If anything the only small complain is the pool could have been a little cooler. We went in to cool down but it was rather warm
