Perfect for a cheap over night stay in the city or if your heading to the stadium all with in a 10 min walk
Staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was kept clean and tidy and had everything that I needed. The hotel was in a great location to be able to walk in the town centre and the bay.
All rooms are the same size whether you book a double or pay extra for a family room. The only difference is the family room has a makeshift bed above the double bed. The toilet is a similar size you would find on an aeroplane, and the shower cubicle is next to the bed so you step out naked into the room, which is fine for a family with small children but not teenage children.

It’s budget which I understand. But it’s way too substandard
The hotel location was just what we needed close to town so we didn’t need a taxi. Hotel was fine though not having the toilet, shower and sink in one seperate room was a bit annoying.
