I’m
in
two
minds
about
this
hotel
-
there’s
lots
of
great
aspects
but
equally
improvements
needed.
In
the
days
leading
up
to
my
stay
I
tried
to
reach
out
for
assistance
with
transport
to
the
hotel,
but
there
was
no
response
to
email
and
difficulty
with
English
over
the
phone.
Fortunately
taxis
are
easy
enough
to
source
at
the
airport
but
allow
at
least
an
hour,
and
my
return
took
two
hours
in
peak
traffic.
Checking
in
was
easy,
staff
friendly
and
quickly
explained
the
facilities
and
although
it
felt
a
basic
affair
it
was
quick.
My
room
was
on
the
same
level
as
reception
and
was
listed
as
a
Superior
Single
room.
Fortunately
this
didn’t
equate
to
only
having
a
single
bed
and
the
room
was
pretty
spacious.
With
a
tiled
floor
throughout
and
effective
air-conditioning
it
was
a
cool
room
in
the
hot
weather
and
with
a
separated
living
area
by
a
step
it
would
be
comfortable
for
an
extended
stay.
There
was
a
large
desk
with
kettle
but
only
a
single
coffee
sachet
provided,
which
felt
tight
despite
the
single
occupancy.
There
was
a
large
bottle
of
mineral
water.
The
TV
was
wall
mounted
opposite
the
bed,
a
decent
enough
size
for
the
room
but
with
rather
poor
picture
quality
and
only
a
single
channel
in
English
from
the
US.
The
selling
point
for
the
hotel
rooms
is
the
sea
facing
views
and
balconies.
This
is
a
nice
space
with
the
seats
and
the
sound
of
waves
crashing
on
the
rocks
below
great,
although
I’m
not
sure
I’d
feel
so
relaxed
during
stormy
weather!
The
bathroom
was
an
okay
space
with
plenty
of
storage
space
around
the
sink.
Only
a
single
item
of
each
toiletry
was
provided,
and
none
of
them
seemed
to
match,
but
there
were
enough
towels
of
good
quality.
Bizarrely
the
toilet
seat
was
too
small
for
the
actual
toilet
and
there
was
no
form
of
door
or
curtain
on
the
shower
which
made
it
feel
a
bit
of
work-in-progress
area.
The
shower
head
was
good,
but
with
very
sensitive
temperature
control
and
inconsistent
heat,
but
at
least
a
large
unit.
Overall
it
was
a
comfortable
enough
room.
There
were
some
bugs
which
could
be
found,
small
within
the
lower
living
room
area,
some
larger
hiding
in
the
gaps
around
the
wardrobe,
but
not
something
which
couldn’t
be
put
to
the
back
of
the
mind.
A
lot
of
decor
appeared
to
be
water
damaged
and
was
really
due
a
touch
up,
both
within
the
bathroom
and
main
bedroom
ceiling.
Housekeeping
weren’t
the
quietest
in
the
morning,
but
they
observed
the
privacy
sign
and
there
was
zero
noise
from
the
adjacent
rooms.
On
the
lower
level
is
the
restaurant,
and
below
that
the
bar.
Both
overlook
the
ocean
but
have
very
limited
seating
outdoors.
The
air-conditioning
inside
is
very
effective
and
the
staff
all
very
friendly,
but
somewhat
limited
with
English.
With
the
lights
off
during
the
day
it
didn’t
always
feel
the
most
cosy
of
retreats,
but
there
was
some
more
comfortable
seating
by
the
window
in
the
bar.
Drink
prices
are
reasonable
and
always
served
properly
chilled.
There
was
a
mixed
experience
with
glasses
being
provided
for
the
bottled
beer
and
whether
a
bowl
of
nuts
was
brought
though.
The
restaurant
has
a
decent
enough
menu
selection,
and
all
the
dishes
looked
great
in
terms
of
presentation.
Wanting
something
smaller
I
opted
for
the
Lagon
burger
and
while
it
was
tasty
it
was
strange
to
receive
without
the
complete
bun!
Flavour
was
great
though,
portion
size
good
for
the
price
and
overall
enjoyable
with
the
service.
Checking
out
was
a
seamless
experience,
with
bags
taken
care
of
and
a
quick
organisation
of
a
taxi
to
the
airport.
There’s
a
small
amount
of
seating
in
the
lobby
if
you
do
need
to
wait
for
any
reason
and
the
location
of
the
hotel
was
nice
for
a
first
time
visit
to
the
city.
It’s
an
easy
walk
to
the
centre
and
being
on
the
coast
has
some
other
good
options.
The
staff
are
great,
even
though
I
struggled
not
being
great
French,
and
for
the
sea
views
the
rooms
are
brilliant.
Some
decorating
wouldn’t
go
amiss
to
bring
it
up
to
the
four-star
expectation
but
it
would
still
be
a
consideration
for
me
on
a
future
city
visit.
