In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Prime location — Just a 6-minute walk to the Sun Voyager and about 10 minutes to the main shopping street, with plenty of restaurants and bars nearby.
  • Breakfast worth waking up for — Guests repeatedly praise the breakfast for its quality, variety, and value, with one calling it excellent and another impressed by the fresh selection.
  • Helpful, friendly staff — From arranging car service to booking tours, the front desk team earns consistent praise for being professional and accommodating.
  • Clean, comfortable rooms — Guests describe rooms as clean, comfortable, and some recently refurbished, with private bathrooms and in-room tea and coffee.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms can feel basic — With a Rooms and cleanliness score of 7, some guests may find the rooms standard rather than luxurious.
  • No full restaurant — The only dining outlet is a small restaurant used mainly for breakfast; otherwise there’s a bar/lounge and vending machines.
  • Breakfast not always included — At least one guest noted breakfast wasn’t part of their rate, so factor that into your booking.
  • Compact spaces for families — The Family Room has just two single beds, and even the Family Suite pairs two singles with a balcony—so larger families may need to book multiple rooms.
