Disappointed

When we checked in the staff were great and very helpful. However when we got to our rooms the bathroom was nothing like the only photo when we booked. I think that could have been overseen if it were not for the smell of the room in total. So bad we actually checked out after we checked in almost immediately. Made our excuses and left. Disappointed.

Check-in and check-out was very simple process. Front desk and all staff were very kind and helpful. Rooms were clean and tidy, all facilities listed were adequately fulfilled.

Worse experience ever

Our stay was the worse we ever experienced. Firstly the neighborhood was sketchy and as 2 women we felt very unsafe. The room was full of bugs, insects, dirt and mold. It was a terrible smell of smoke even though it said “no smoking”. You couldn’t lock the door properly which made us feel even more unsafe. We got to change room but there the shower was broken and unusable and the WiFi didn’t work there. We asked for a refund because we didn’t want the stress on our vacation to change room every night. We didn’t get a refund or compensation even if we were told so. Very disappointed, do not recommend to anyone.

This is a 3 star resort. Don’t book here thinking it will be something else. I booked a queen room but was put in a ‘family room’. That is a queen with 2 singles in the one room. Clean sheets. Lots of towels. Small bar fridge. TV only has free to air channels. Walls are thin. Hear movement above, next door and around the room. Pool is ok. Not cleaned on bottom but water was clean. Had a swim. No worries. Located on north side of city. City centre is about 1.2 km away. It’s not a bad walk and if you walk across to the boardwalk and down it is quite scenic. Good coffee at the goose and the quack nearby.
