"GOOD LOCATIONICE APARTMENT"

8.0

Our apartment No 12 was located at the back of the building unfortunately rooftops obstructed view of the ocean. Apartment was clean and comfortable rooms were just big enough beds were good pillows were O.K. short drive to restaurants and cafe's. Apartment has a lift. Plates, glasses mugs cutlery etc all provided. Good value for money.

Apartment 12 is at the back of the building with rooftops obstructing the ocean view. It also backs onto a primary school so you hear screaming kids 1st thing in the morning.
