This property (room 204) was particularly tired. The tiles appeared old and dirty in the kitchen. There are extremely limited cooking implements and no kitchen knife for chopping etc. The shower had black mould. The air conditioner was very loud. The sofa bed was extremely uncomfortable and very uneven. It was better to remove the mattress and sleep on the floor. Even this was still uncomfortable. The TVs are very small and old. The outdoor veranda furniture was also old and stained. Carpets in the common areas were stained. This is a 2 star offering at best.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
A gas jet on the stove was on when I went to the room I had been allocated. The whole apartment smelt strongly of gas. I was given a new room. When I reported the problem with the gas I was told it was likely caused by a cleaner accidentally turning it on while cleaning. I thought this was implausible. I thought it was dangerous but my complaint was not taken seriously.

A very comfortable and clean property for a stay. We had a 2 bedroom apartment as were there with friends and found the apartment a little smaller than expected. The main concerns were an ensuite will add to the apartment especially when staying with another couple. No screen on sliding door meant when open for fresh air flies will fly in. Breakfast, pool and gym looked good although did not use pool or gym on weekend. air con in bedroom would also be a great addition especially for the warmer months. Location was good overall.

Part of the bathroom floor was rusted in a corner and the shower leaked. The phone didn’t work and I couldn’t ring the desk or room service and had to go to reception in person. The restaurant had run out of vegetables and there was nothing for dinner at all for a vegan (myself). They apologised but I couldn’t eat anything and had to go out.

The analog clock in our room keeps going off several times in the morning, disturbing our sleep. We did not set it. No way to unplug it without destroying the connection. We did not know how to switch it off as it was an old clock. It should be removed as most guests own a smart phone these days where we can set our own alarms if we want to. This unpleasant experience semi-ruined our otherwise nice stay. Apartment was clean and spacious, Staff at cafe got overwhelmed with coffee orders and showed irritation. Again minor blip in our stay but still left an unpleasant mark.
