We had room 112, outside the window were what I think are Air Con motors, the noise was unbearable, this meant a totally sleepless night for myself and my wife.These rooms should be booked out last, especially when the hotel wasnt full.We booked weeks ago and should have been advised of the noise.

We booked a driftwood room, didn't know until we got there it was totally separate from the rest of beachfront resort. 2nd floor room, uncomfortably hot. No aircon only thing available was a fan. Nice clean tidy accommodation otherwise.

Room was exceptionally hot with no aircon. The fridge did not work. The shower nozzle was a trickle of water. The shower was cramped. If you require a budget stay, it's a shade better than a backpack.
