The location was very convenient and the suite was unexpectedly, serviced daily. The air con was quiet at night. There was noise at night probably due to the proximity of the public bus stop but it didn't go late.

This is a budget option but the property needs a good clean. The stairs leading in both ways are filthy. The windows in the room looking to the beach were filthy so no point opening curtains. The bed/pillow was smelly. Great location but grubby. Staff not overly friendly.
