For the price we paid, this hotel was spot on. Small room with minimal facilities, but ideal for the base we needed. Perhaps supply cups in the room would be the only complaint. A kettle but no cups seems weird lol.

This was a learning curve, the patio area is a sun trap but it could do with a clean we were here 12 days and not once was the area swept or cleaned, the pool was dirty and again wasn't cleaned once we were there.
The shower was tiny and the curtain was held up with thread, there was scum around the shower, won't be staying here again ever. Also the stairs into the pool is false advertising, it shows actual stairs leading into the pool which was great for us as my wife struggles to use the ladders to get in and out of the pool, this is one of the main reasons we booked here also.

Checked in here on Xmas day for 4 nights and checked out the next morning. Rooms are filthy…..so much so that I washed the floor myself and slept on it in my clothes because the bed was a disgrace. Towels are filthy dirty. Hairs from previous people everywhere in the room….Breakfast is a selection of dried out processed meat. Avoid this place at all costs

Good enough place for me. The shower didnt drain well. The shower curtain is too long and holds the soap residue. On the good side, I didn’t smell any mould and it was “clean enough”. Other guests shouting happily without any regard for sleeping guests. Walls are thin. Luckily I went back to sleep quickly.

If you crave adventure, this is your place. The pool wasn’t just green, it was a living ecosystem — I’m fairly sure I spotted a new species evolving in there. Cupboards came with free black mould, giving that rainforest authenticity travel blogs dream about. The cleaners are true artists, skilfully relocating dirt from one area to another so every surface feels equally loved.

Building works serenaded us daily, with the soothing buzz of a chop saw and the occasional dramatic crash. The garden doubled as an avant-garde exhibition, featuring discarded sinks as thought-provoking sculptures.

Our room had a colony of ants to keep us company and a toilet that embraced minimalism by refusing to function. And just when we thought it couldn’t get more exciting, we were treated to a wake-up call from armed police. Forget package holidays — this was a full-blown survival experience with all the thrills included. Will definitely be back.
