Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I got a room with a balcony facing the ocean and with walls either side keeping the balcony warm but not unbearably hot. You can hear the ocean waves while you sleep. The warm has a small mini fridge kettle, dishes for 2. I couldnt het the tv to work but didnt bother me as I spent most of rhe time on the balcony. Everything is in walking distants, didnt need to drive anywhere once I arrived. Staff were friendly and nice.

At the time I arrived the only access was via the garage due to repair work on the stairs. Also my room was not made up. The rooms were tidy clean and the shower water pressure was excellent

I didn’t give 5 stars because I had anticipated a bath in the apartment. The sauna, spa and pool was great. Not a lot of parking. Beach is right across the street, and all the shopping nearby.

It is obvious this property relies on its location to attract customers. The facilities are average and poorly maintained. Laminex surfaces badly chipped, metal corroded and patching of damaged walls obvious. Just a place to sleep!
