Good - if not travelling by car. Passable if travelling by car.
Pros:

The room it self was clean, comfortable and look as if it had been recently renovated. The location was central and close to the beach and restaurants and shops etc. The staff were friendly.

Cons:

However the building was a bit run down and the underground carpark did not feel secure - i asked a person on the front desk if my car would be safe in the carpark - she just shrugged and said the hotel was not responsoble for the carpark. I fully unloaded the car and there was no incident overnight in the end. It also smelt really bad. The odour from the carpark affected the lift for the buildiing.

Good location but not much else
Pros:

Great central location, only 5 mins from the beach and right in town.

Cons:

Extremely noisy at night even with the windows shut. Our bedroom seemed to be right next to a tree of birds that were squawking all night, plus noise from the nightlife on the street. The latter was expected given the central location, however there were no earplugs at reception either to help with that. The place is a little rundown and items like the aircon, washing machine and furniture were in disrepair.
