Here’s what worked – and what didn’t

The warm and friendly service surpassed all expectations, making every moment enjoyable. Excellent breakfast variety and portions energized our mornings, while the prime location facilitated effortless exploration.

Wi-Fi connectivity issues were quite significant. the signal was sporadic, which hindered some online activities. note that the hotel lacks a liquor license, requiring visits to nearby establishments for drinks.

stylishly furnished heritage building, ample outdoor seating in the courtyard, various sitting areas with a desk

Cleanliness can improve!!! The internet password change in the middle of the night hindered convenience!!! Musty smell from beach towels was quite off-putting!!! Too many repeated issues with orders in the restaurant!!!

Gorgeous stay with lovely vibes

We had a fab time! The room was huge, bright, and the air con was a lifesaver in the heat. Enjoyed dining on the veranda—so chill. Also loved the afternoon tea and the fact that everything's walkable. Only thing was the Wi-Fi was a bit spotty when we needed it.

limited amenities

Spacious and beautifully appointed, the suite provided a luxurious atmosphere for relaxation. The attentive staff, paired with a complimentary happy hour and delightful afternoon tea, significantly enhanced the experience. Breakfast offerings, including delicious vegan pizza, ensured a great start to each day. noise from the outside could occasionally disrupt the tranquility, and there was insufficient lighting in some areas. the location in the heart of the historic area made it easy to explore nearby attractions.

I stayed for 1 night in a Double Bazaar Bedroom. The service was excellent and the room had a free mini bar. The pool was spacious for swimming. I loved the indoor and outdoor relaxation areas. The chef created a special vegetarian meal for me. 🌟
