Good communication with hotel for organising parking and a later checkout on our last day. Parking at the hotel was close by. Check in was smooth and all staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Lovely large room with balcony and sea view. Our room was clean and tidy with a large comfy bed, air con, fridge, hairdryer, towels, robes, slippers and toiletries in the bathroom. Breakfast was included in the price and very good. Close to shops, restaurants and beach. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Good hotel
Staff friendly, breakfast excellent, facilities fine. However, website implies that all rooms lookout over the bay or seafront. This is untrue as half the rooms look over a grubby back road. This is fine for a short business trip but not for 7 days holiday. No other rooms were available to us.

- The Restaurant Music never stops from 6:00 am till midnight (First night it never stopped). Although room is comfortable, could not sleep well because of the unexpected sounds.

Klein schoon hotel met zeer vriendelijk personeel. Kamers werden iedere dag schoongemaakt en om de dag werden de bedden verschoond.
Goed voor een kort verblijf. Op een paar honderd meter kon je lekker op het strand zonnen bij de Waikiki beach bar.
