This place is run down and I didn’t know. I asked to change the room as it was dirty musky and had mold on the walls. They said it was due to rain and no rooms. So I double booked and moved to Sheraton

The room was too old and the facilities were outdated, which was disappointing. However, the breakfast was good, and the surrounding sea view was beautiful. The price was also much lower. If it were renovated, I would consider staying there again.

The view is great. It is more enjoyable to see the sea in the room than other hotels. There is an old elevator over 100 years old. The sanitary services are very thoughtful. The rooms are upgraded! There are also big bouquets of flowers in each room, but they are yellow chrysanthemums (the lobby is white chrysanthemums)😄. The TV wiring is not good and needs to be repaired. The old man who always folded paper in the restaurant is no longer here. It is a little regrettable. There are many guests, but fewer European and American guests.

The environment is beautiful, the facilities and services are a little behind, and the waiting time is too long!

Really good breakfast, rally friendly and amazing staff.very poor building and room condition. Very poor house keeping. I had to share my room with a huge cockroach. Overall I would not recommend to stay here. Overpriced and poor for what you get.
