Its position is very convenient and across the road from the water. The managment is very clear on check in times of after 2pm. But after leaving home at 4am and arriving at 1pm we were hoping we could check in as we were exhausted but office is closed until 2pm. So be aware that there are no exceptions and don't arrive early. Otherwise it was very quiet and we were happy with what was offered.

We had an ok stay, no real problems, just lots of little things, dirty cutlery, broken cups, broken blinds in the room Shower clean but we had to oil the door ourselves to stop the squeaky noise! Definitely a good price point so you know it wo t be 5* but I think a bit of care and attention to the room would be good
