10/10 Excellent
"I booked this location as a last minute resort. I was not tremendously impressed with the room. It was very basic with just a bed and bathroom. No T.V. no refrigerator. The furniture was somewhat outdated included shower and toilet. There was no soap provided only some hand wash. The room had a foul smell almost as if it needed a dehumidifier. The location however is in a great area with very friendly locals. It is popular for surfers although I do not surf it was great watching those who did. The property has a restaurant that serves really good food. I was very pleased with the breakfast included in my stay. The ocean view is beautiful. The hotel is close to other well known areas. If you are someone who likes to surf this is the place for you."
