Pros:

Breakfast was good, typical South Indian with some variation from day to day. The room was quite clean and comfortable.

Location is fantastic and we were able to use it as a base, returning to the room several times each day between exploring the town and the beach.

Complaints would be noise and service - our room had some machinery outside the window which made a constant loud noise through the night - possibly an air con outlet. On Saturday evening there was also loud music coming down from the bar above but this stopped at 11pm so we were ok with this.
Service was not great either, a couple of times we asked for top ups of things which they promised to supply but then didn't.
