Great spot by the beach, be wary of name change

Good value, great location. Had an issue with the name change of the hotel and ending up at the wrong branch (hotel owner has two establishments) but was recitified and tranferred to the correct one. Keep your payment references as I was asked by three seperate members of staff about payment that had been made online previously.
