Pros:

Die Unterkunft hat alles, was man braucht und das Zimmer war sehr sauber.
Besonders hervorheben möchte ich, dass ich an meinem Abreisetag bis abends um 21 Uhr auf meinen Bus warten musste. Ich durfte trotzdem noch Pool und die Toilette benutzen. Das schätze ich sehr. Der Inhaber ist sehr nett und ich würde hier auf jeden Fall nochmal übernachten! Danke!

Good location - no staff on site.
Pros:

The location was great and the bed was comfortable. The pool area was clean and tidy.

Cons:

I didn’t like walking in from the parking lot to a sign saying, “Smile, you’re on camera.” There was no one at reception even though we arrived when the office was supposed to be open - in fact, I never saw a single staff member during my stay. There was only a whiteboard with a note saying which room I was assigned to, and the key was in the room. When I went to the room, there was a sign telling me all of the ways I would be charged extra money if I didn’t leave it in exactly the condition specified. There was definitely an unfriendly tone to the property.

Great location. Comfortable stay, but the place is in need of a freshen up.
Pros:

The location is great. Walking distance to shops, restaurants and foreshore. The infinity pool was lovely with a great view. We were given a room upgrade to a larger, more private studio. Thank you.

Cons:

The complex is quite run down and in need of some TLC. The website pictures do not accurately reflect this property.
