Reviews and Ratings
A cozy hotel close to the beach with clean rooms and friendly service. The dining options could be improved, but overall a comfortable stay with a good value for money.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms, though not renovated, were clean and comfortable, and the location was very close to the beach. The service, despite not offering tours or ticket assistance, was satisfactory. The dining experience provided raw fish options, which may not be suitable for everyone.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms, while not renovated, were incredibly clean and cozy. The service - especially with the assistance with tours and tickets - was top-notch. The location couldn't have been better, being right on the hotel's beach with easy access to the nearby beach. The dining experience was delightful, especially the variety of curries offered. The facilities were fantastic, offering everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I will definitely be coming back!
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms may not be the most modern but they are kept clean and cozy. The miniature showers were a bit unusual but functional. The service, though lacking in some areas, was helpful and friendly. The location is definitely a highlight, being so close to the beach, which was a huge plus. The dining experience left something to be desired, although the American pancakes were a nice touch. The facilities were adequate and added to the overall comfort of the stay.
The hotel is conveniently located right on the beach, offering easy access to the sandy shores and nearby attractions. The rooms, although not renovated, are impeccably clean and provide a comfortable stay. The service, while lacking tours or ticket assistance, is friendly and accommodating. Enjoying the hotel's prime beachfront location is a definite highlight, but the dining options, especially for sandwiches, could be more varied.
