Large lovely rooms, fast room service, restaurant and pool area was really nice and the food was great. Only negative is you can definitely hear the music from downstairs in your room, it’s not too too bad and my kiddos slept through but if you are a light sleeper it may be an issue. Will definitely stay again

The room was spacious and newly renovated, the location was convenient, within walking distance to all the shops and the beach, nice pub downstairs. Staff was friendly and helpful. Only downside is that it can be noisy till midnight, but that has to be expected from the location, so I'm still giving it 5 stars.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Great location and the bar and restaurant were good. Room was in poor condition. Had to get serviceman to room to stop toilet running, sink did not drain, plug didn't work and the flashing light on the security card holder was annoying, so had to cover up with towel each night. Main concern was the lip/step as you enter the bathroom. This is a hazard. My wife and daughter both kicked their toes against the step, with my daughter in tears and toe went purple from bruising. Fortunately nothing broken. We had to roll up a towel and place it against the step to prevent any further issues.

Our twin suit was great! Very comfortable beds and spacious layout. The hot tub was chilly and when I spoke to the front desk the manager said it was in fine working order so perhaps we were mistaken. Our vehicle did not fit in the parking but the parking garage around the corner was great and cheaper. Overall great room but pool and hot tub require maintenance.
