Awesome budget hotel, close to the beach, many food options close by. Staff really nice folks. Area pretty chaotic, looks beat up, no fault of the hotel. I noticed lots of garbage on the streets, unfortunately it was being created by the locals .

My spouse and I stayed five nights in bungalow with kitchen #15. It was clean, had everything we needed, and a block from the beach. The area was definitely noisy at night, say 11 PM to 3 AM, since many people come to party. Believe it or not, we got good nights’ sleep here anyway. We would stay here again for the price point.

No window

All good but no real window in the room, just one that looked in to a hallway so curtains had to stay closed all the time. Made the room dark n gloomy.

The walls are so thin you can hear when the people next door turn over in bed. No loo paper, no towels, very noisy at night. Not very clean and couldn’t sit on the loo straight on as wall too close. Luggage was just left unattended for a one to help themselves to. No one there when I was told to turn up t for check in. The blue loo water was leaking all the way into the shower, it was gross.

Killen som hanterade incheckning kunde ingen engelska. Incheckningen tog ganska lång tid. Incheckning kl 15, vi var där 14.20 Fick vänta på rummet till kl 15. Vi satt på en bänk utanför rummet och rummet var färdigstädat. Bänken vi satt på var nymålad visade det sig och inte riktigt torr. Kläderna fick fläckar av färgen. Rummet saknade glas och vi bad att få två glas. Till vår förvåning hade man inga glas på hotellet. Detta fick man ordna på annat sätt !!! Rummet skall vara 18 kvm, stämmer knappast. Badrummet är väldigt litet. Skall du använda toaletten får du sätta dig på tvären ! Hotellets fördel är att det ligger väldigt centralt. Killen i receptionen borde söka annat jobb, vet inte vad service är !!!
