Coles and chemist was nearby. Our apartment faced the backpacker accommodation so it was fairy noisy till late, better to get the beach facing apartments. The nearby restaurants are mostly bars, the waterfront which is a short drive away had a big selection of cuisines. ##### Damien Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nzeera Aug 4, 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort Not enough or difficult to reach electrical access.

The Aircon in the bedroom didn’t work and made terrible noise, and the lovely hotel attendant was going to check if a different room was available but in the three days we were there never got back to us and always said she’d let us know. The sink faucet handle had to be held together to use or it fell off. I hurt my foot on a sticking up carpet tack near the door. It was a lovely property but the dirty streaks in the bathroom near the toilet paper rolls were disconcerting and it needed a clean and some TLC. For how much it cost I would not recommend. It was in worse condition than some backpackers I’ve been in- but the location and views were superb. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4d65129b-5f01-4165-bfb1-a6eff6d9b9c4-1759814481229.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6c7c881d-7dca-4222-8286-faa7910fd65e-1759814481836.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/92dee005-14e8-497d-bb9c-37175c3a20a4-1759814481538.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Allison Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen Jul 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely accommodation close to the centre of town ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sharon Nov 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Good service, excellent view, nice pool ##### Sharon Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachel Jul 9, 2023 Awesome hotel to stay at, close to shops and restaurants and hotel room had everything we wanted.
