"Quite deserted with all the food stalls closed that we have to drive out. We went during the off peak period. The hotel is very close to the beautiful beach tho. The hotel room is okay for a nite stay. I would not recommend for family to stay here. It is in need of upgrading. Staff very friendly ..."
