good locationcreaky floorsblack water
the location was pretty good, i suppose..
The creaky floors were a bit much. i kept thinking the ceiling would cave in. Plus, the black water spitting from the taps initially wasn't exactly a spa experience. it certainly gave my clothes a unique 'vintage' look.. sigh

Excellent Food and Helpful Staff
helpful stafftasty foodbasic hotel
I was very grateful for the helpfulness of the staff. The food was hot and tasty. I found the location good for touring the area.
The hotel is quite basic, and I struggled to find a parking space because the hotel hosted a wedding. Some of the decor needs a freshen up. The room was dated, and fixtures were broken.

The location offers easy access to the wedding venue. A fine beach is just a short, five-minute drive away. The hotel has a large car park. I found it easy to park there.
