lisa and mark were very cute. the double room had a tv. a kettle was also provided in the room (this helped me relax in the evenings).

the car park across the road was pricey. it cost fifteen pounds per twenty four hours. this added to the overall expense.

Location

the location is near the beach front. it is only a five minute walk. coral island is a short walk away, too. this proximity makes it easy to access the main attractions.

the breakfast was cooked fresh each morning. it was delicious.

The sink in the bathroom was tiny, and it did not drain well. the cups had some tiny flies in them. This was off-putting. no card facilities were available at all, and i found no cash machines nearby.
