Run down property needs some TLC some kind of motor outside the window so I could not sleep maybe air con? I turned mine off but the noise continued feel very misled as pictures don’t match the stay they were obviously taken after decoration many years ago and the bar was empty as not in use we had to go next door for drinks and food the breakfast included was not edible their were piles of wasted so called breakfast after guests realise how gross it was cold grey tasteless potatoes rubber cold scrambled eggs and 2 of the smallest pies I’ve ever seen in my life that were like lumps of iron! Toilets in the restaurant were vile and I was gagging when I left flooded floors and you know what everywhere ! Even the water served smelt like toilet water in a plastic cup! Why don’t they just do a buffet or a breakfast sandwich have some kind of respect for the voucher holding customers ? walk ins from off the street customers got attractive food and served straight away as the rest of us are like dogs still waiting over 30 minutes I’m still waiting for my cream for my watery coffee it never came overall I’d definitely stay at a more expensive place just to be treated like a human I went to my room to grab my things to check out I was 4 minutes late but they had already locked my card and i needed to use the toilet I asked a cleaner to open my room but got told to go to the front desk not happy at all! Shame the place has big potential but for now I won’t be returning won’t post pics

My husband and I stayed 2 nights here. The first night was good very pleasant. The room was clean and basic good for a couple nights. However upon entering our room after we had been out the second day they was an extremely strong smell of paint. I called front desk and she sent someone they admitted the smell was high and it probably was maintenance but they insisted they didn’t have any other rooms. The front desk person was Maria, she was absolutely rude and had a terrible attitude as if I was causing her an inconvenience. I packed my bags and went to the lobby but Maria insisted she couldn’t give me another room nor give a refund for the second night. I told her I would have to report their hotel to the fire station because if someone stayed in that room and slept all night they would definitely be sick or even worse get terribly ill and was gonna leave at that point until about 10 minutes later she called me and said they “found” a room. We moved into the other room stayed there for the night. I was very disappointed with her attitude and total disregard for customer service. I will not be returning unfortunately.

I like this hotel. Stayed once previously. I think I will choose the corner room next time as it’s has more counter/storage space. Property is clean, people are nice and you can walk to the beach easily. My one issue is that the breakfast has changed from the buffet at the sister hotel, the President? To a plate of eggs, toast, potatoes, two pieces of bacon, a bowl of cut fruit and a drink at the restaurant next door. Not a bad breakfast but underwhelming. I’d rather they reduced the resort fee and I would gladly buy my own breakfast elsewhere, as I plan to do for the rest of my stay here.

I like the location, didn’t like there was no actual pool on the roof top as advertised. The hotel offered free breakfast (nice Gesture) however, the choices or options were of poor quality. The orange juice was tasteless. Great welcome choice drinks tickets at the bar.
