The upkeep of furniture maintenance was poor. It was like walking into an old roadside motel. Every wall was patch repaired and marked, in desperate need of a paint, poor lighting in the bathroom with blown bulbs, stained lamp shade and grotty ironing board, peeling MDF furniture and the bed wasn't great. It was clean but disappointing. All you pay for is location, not a decent room to stay in.

Our room was right on the beach — beautiful, comfortable and perfectly located. If I had to be particular, it was slightly dated, but certainly nothing that would deter me from staying here again. The pool area was spotless and absolutely stunning. We’ll definitely be back!
