Satisfactory stay

standard hotel breakfastgood foodcentral bus stationroof top barreception baradditional income

The breakfast offered a standard hotel selection. Food was readily replenished. The location is good, with the beach and a local food market at a comfortable distance. The central bus station is also a short walk away.

The roof top bar was often closed. It seemed under utilised. The bar in the reception area was also never open. These spaces could provide additional income for the hotel.

the room design was modern and of really good quality. a comfortable bed exceeded my expectations. the hotel's theme was well executed and the staff greeted me warmly, i felt very welcome.

i found that the breakfast, while plentiful, lacked variety, and the quality was not really good. fresh, raw vegetables were missing from the selection.
