Mixed feelings about this hotel

loud music uninvolved staff
The location directly on the beach was convenient.
I was disappointed with the noise levels. Music from a nearby bar played loudly until midnight. a tuk-tuk driver outside seemed to bully Uber drivers, and the hotel staff did not intervene.

The breakfast was tasty. It included hot options, a bread basket, fresh fruit, and fruit juices. I liked that I could use the pool at a sister hotel nearby. The restaurant served tasty food on the beach.
My room faced the street. I heard tuk-tuks passing by and dogs barking all night. I found a cockroach in the bathroom shortly after arrival. The hotel staff said this is normal here.

mixed feelings about the stay

loud music dirty towels
The location was indeed right on the beach. A major plus.
The music was loud, a party continued till 2 a.m. starting from 7 a.m., the staff started very loud conversations with each other. i was hoping for a quiet place, but it was definitely not it. also, the sun-beds looked dirty. It's time to change the towels.
