Was a fun place to stay. Has a restaurant and several bars. It’s right on the beach. Room was clean. The only downside was parking. It was on the street and if you weren’t out by 8:30 am you had to pay.

The hotel is located very close to the beach which was nice. The reception desk personnel were very welcoming. It was easier to get to our room using an outside secure entry door located on the side of the hotel. The room was clean and the beds were comfy. The rainshower showerhead was very nice. It did take a little while for the shower water to get warm. We had dinner in the bar. There was a nice menu selection. The Korean fried chicken was excellent as well as the prawns and chorizo dish. Although the bar was extremely busy, the wait staff checked on us regularly.

Excellent property with many dining and drinking options. The tomato soup and the carrot soup were amazing! The room was rather small and we had trouble figuring out how to turn on power for some of the outlets.
