Our stay was amazing. Everything about the place was great from the service from the staff, the location and the convenience of transport. The beach is a few minutes walk as well.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The only thing that met our expectations was the excellent customer service and help we got from staff especially the manager on duty. She stayed late until 0100 am to receive us and was understanding when we told her the facility didn’t meet our expectations and reached out to owner to make sure we got charged for only one night.
