Disappointed
Pros:

Staff were swift and efficient. Location was great.

Cons:

I booked a sea view room with a double bed. I was not given a sea view room. The room had twin beds. The a/c was difficult to operate and only cooled the living area, not the bed room. The fan in the bedroom had a really loud screech all night. There was exterior noice from the ICC that came into the bedroom.
