Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
No communication about checkin. Last message received said to report to Reception but there was no reception. Finally received the key but too many stairs as one of us has trouble walking. Used tiny bit of toilet paper on roll but no spare roll. Will never stay there again.
When we arrived there was nobody to book us in. After a couple of phone calls we were given a code for the door to our room and we booked ourselves in. The room was very disappointing. The adverts speak of ocean views, well, all we had was a brick wall. The room is small and very basic, not my idea of a “four star”motel at all, in fact I would not rate it “One Star” I immediately called the office and spoke to a lady I think she said her name was Michelle ( I could not understand her broken english) and cancelled the booking at 4:30 pm on Wednesday 27-3-24. I requested a full refund. Their adverts are misleading and NOT a true reflection of what they provide. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone.
The room was good, outside was very shabby and we never received check in details, but when contacted was very easy

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
No stuff, No reception even at 6pm, they didn’t send me any text or email or phone to give me my room number and note me how to enter to the motel.
Very confusing.
No view to see of street, The outside of the building was very old but the inside was clean and in a good condition.
Did not know hotel was self check in. Had no details actually sent to me with check in details so when we arrived we didn’t know what to do. There is no reception desk at all and only poorly labelled entrance doors as “Hotel Entrance” One was even written on a piece of paper and stuck on the door. Wifi didn’t work or reach the ocean view room?? And the hot water situation- if it’s not hot after running for 10mins you have to contact the number written on the sign in the wall in the bathroom. Room was as it looks in the photos and clean but just a few questionable things. They need to update their info about the hotel
