"I think some of these people leaving reviews have very high standards for budget hotels! This place is fine. The air con and WiFi worked well in my room, the bed was comfortable and the main beach is a walkable distance. The main problem is the noise from the road in front of the hotel, but it didn't keep me up at night so it wasn't that bad. This is a decent budget option."
