    clean room, spacious balcony, easy parking access

    No proper maintenance of air conditioning!!! A fan controller lacked a knob. if you want to avoid the AC, you can't adjust the fans!!! The overall appearance is dated and could use a serious refresh!!!

    clean, comfortable, convenient

    The Queen Room Studio felt like a private oasis with ample drawer space and a cozy kitchenette. I loved the convenience of the drying board and iron provided, making it easy to feel at home during my stay. The location is a gem, just steps from the seaside and local cafes. I enjoyed lounging by the relaxing outdoor saltwater pool.

    100% recommend 😊❤️

    unpleasant smell

    The room had an awful smell upon arrival, forcing me to leave the balcony door open continuously until it was somewhat bearable. The shower setup needs work, with temperature issues and a smoke alarm that went off for no good reason while cooking. Limited crockery, often declining in quantity, made it tricky for a couple of guests wishing to enjoy a meal in. Plus, a noisy airline flight path overhead made those quiet moments harder to find during the stay.

    unpleasant smell

    The Queen Room, Studio was surprisingly spacious with a cozy kitchenette. The balcony was a nice touch, overlooking a peaceful park area, which made for some lovely morning coffee moments. It felt clean, and the pool area looked inviting. However, the free Wi-Fi wasn’t great and felt super slow at times.

    cleanliness issues

    Check-in was a pleasant experience with the helpful staff who remained friendly throughout our stay. The room felt spacious, featuring a kitchenette that made it easy to prepare simple meals. I loved the little balcony with a view, a perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The jet tub was a delightful surprise in our room—definitely a highlight of the trip. However, the cleanliness of the property left much to be desired. The outdoor fountain looked neglected and the room showed signs of superficial cleaning. I noticed dust on surfaces and the bathroom needed more attention. On our second night, an issue with roaches in the room created some unease, but the staff handled it promptly and offered reassurances. The shower water temperature fluctuated uncomfortably at times. It would also be great if the motel provided more than one key for rooms with multiple guests, which was inconvenient. Overall, the staff's dedication made a big difference in our experience, yet the cleanliness concerns should definitely be addressed for future stays.

    basic kitchenette
    far location
    worn furniture

    Located a bit further from the city center, the walk to the esplanade can be significant in the heat. The kitchenette equipped with basic items allows for convenience, but the pool furniture needs updating. Staff members are friendly and eager to assist, enhancing the overall experience.
