Cons:

The noise at night from people who booked to sleep in the hotel was annoying. The bathroom wasn't nice and it was too small, looked like those in the long distance busses and trains. The plastic material used on the bathroom was a no no from me.

Pros:

Rooms were super clean

Cons:

False advertisement, worst sun1 l have ever been to. Too much chaos especially from the reception area it was like there's a club in the hotel, too much ups and downs, too many people loitering around. Was booked into a smoking room even though l don't smoke and was told it's my fault. We couldn't wait to check out

Pros:

It was closed to where I wanted to go.

Cons:

Their beds are not comfortable & also not nicely placed in the room. The worst i didn't like is this bed that they have ontop of the other one, it makes it very uncomfortable for you to sleep.

Again, their charging point, is so small, you can't put any type of adopter that you want.

Pros:

The location was good, regardless of the shortfalls we enjoyed our stay. No breakfast offered so I can't comment about that

Cons:

I didn't like the shower and toilet setting. One can't be in the toilet when someone is on the shower or vice versa cause one will be drenched with water unnecessarily. I did not realize that the bunk bed meant it will be on top and as a parent traveling with a toddler it was not on for me.
