We booked a driftwood room, didn't know until we got there it was totally separate from the rest of beachfront resort. 2nd floor room, uncomfortably hot. No aircon only thing available was a fan. Nice clean tidy accommodation otherwise.

An old fashioned hotel.
We got a room in very dated condition. There were many steps leading to the room. The only thing I liked was the towel warmer…don’t see this stuff in other hotels. It is okay for one night as a transit stay. Hotel lobby was nice.
