Have stayed here before as such great value for money. Location is walkable to esplanade and main city centre, whilst the hotel may be older the rooms are very spacious and clean and the pool and spa were great on a very hot day. The staff here are always super friendly and the onsite carparking is a huge bonus.

The moment we checked in, Cynthia welcomed us and gave us good recommendations. Celina working the front desk also was very personable and gave us great information. Our room was clean and amenities were sufficient. The location was close to all the activities we wanted to do. Would definitely stay here again.

Very friendly staff, clean pool, secure parking, hood air conditioning. However, rooms are not just outdated but also not clean (floor, curtains, sofa are very dirty). Bed linens were clean. Great place to stay, overall very happy.
