Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The good things: We all love the stay in this property, it is very modern and in fashion. Very close to a beach. Most of the areas were clean. The negative: 1) However, the front downstairs room was not that clean at all. You can find several spiders in each corners in the room, really upset by this. They charged in a very expensive costs, shouldn’t neglect the pest control issue. 2) Also, they just provided 2 bath mats for 7 people to stay for 3 nights. I think that was unreasonable. 3) Lastly, the most unacceptable thing is….they just put the shower gel, shampoo and conditioner ON THE FLOOR???!!!!! My goodness. We felt disgusting. 4) May be it was long weekend?? Some crazy drivers drove in the street crazily and the pub people were screaming and yelling and laughing till 2am. Yes, 2am…unable to fall asleep by the noise.
Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025
