Fantastic budget hotel

This place was amazing. Clean, beautiful views, quiet area, large rooms. Staff were helpful and friendly and stay out of your way so you can do whatever you want to. The only issue is that the parking can be a bit difficult to manage with a large vehicle.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Room was clean, linen was clean but old. No pool at all, outdoor furniture was uncomfortable to sit on. Apartment had a cute fridge and clean microwave to use. That was amazing. Gosh- parking is a problem. The aircon worked perfectly. Housekeeping was excellent. Only major issue I had with the hotel was the crowd it pulls in are the rough crowds so they always making noise and couples fighting and swearing for 2/3hours straight in the middle of the night. I just wish they made the balconies a little bit more comfortable and possibly remove the fake artificial trees in the passages next to the lift 💀☠️😵 Would I come back? Yes def. Would I bring my own linen and earplugs. Totally yes I will. Will I come with a car? No I will park my car in a large mall overnight and use an uber to get to the hotel. There are so many food restaurants and spaza shops up the road. I walked there everyday. It was perfect.

The hotel was nice needed a little refurbishment. The staff made up for it been attentive and helpful. Was worth the money, security was good around the building. One young man lindo in particular very helpful. View of the harbour from my bedroom was amazing I was on the 18th flood of 23. Pool is on rooftop alongside the spa facilities very safe.
