The connecting room to our studio apartment had no sound proof at all so unfortunately had to listen to a group of people partying in the middle of the night like I was in the same room as them. I wanted to leave and go home. I have stayed a number of times over the past 15 years but won’t be returning

Staff were very friendly and helpful on check in. The room itself was very clean and the bed/pillows were so comfortable. The only negative for me was the lack of curtains. There is a window in the verandah area that could not be covered so there was light coming in all night.
