I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the upside, the location is fantastic, right by the beach and surrounded by great cafes and restaurants. The rooms, however, were quite noisy due to nearby backpackers partying late into the night, and the breakfast could use some improvement. Overall, a decent stay with some drawbacks.

Sharing a room with three others, it was a bit cramped. Noise from the backpackers across the road with music late at night was bothersome.

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The location was fantastic, just a short walk to the beach and surrounded by great restaurants. The rooms were spacious and had all the amenities I needed, but they were a bit dark and located on the first floor without much soundproofing. The service was top-notch, with the staff going out of their way to make me feel welcome. The dining options were limited, but the complimentary tea/coffee and muffins made up for it. Overall, a well-managed hotel with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel has good decor in rooms, with muffins and juice for breakfast as a nice touch, but the initial cleanliness was lacking. The loud banging noise from outside was quite bothersome, and overall, the rooms appeared tired and in need of an upgrade soon.

The location was fabulous, minutes away from the beach, local bars, restaurants, and cafes. Close to the main street but still quiet enough. The hotel created a beautiful ambience, especially overlooking the park.
