Solid stay

convenient locationfriendly staffexcellent serviceintermittent power
The hotel has very convenient location, nearby the beach and many shops. The staff were friendly. Win escorted me to my room and explained everything. Niagara, the pool boy, always served with a smile. I find this excellent service.
I noticed intermittent power on my last day. The AC stopped working, though some lights still functioned. I think this was because of work on the street.
