It is the premier place when it comes to the seafront and surfing. The view is beautiful. It has a pool strategically located in front between the seafront and the hotel but it's a bit small for a dozen of guests for a swim.
Food served in the morning (ie, breakfast) was good coz it has a variety of choices plus unlimited coffee. I noticed too many flies hovering over my plate though while I am eating. The staff were attentive, especially in the dining area.
I stayed with 2 friends in room #4 and yes, the bathroom is spacious and clean but I saw a cockroach creeping on the floor and then climbing even if the staff was cleaning/disinfecting the room when we checked in. The water doesn't subside in the drain right away but stays on the floor too long so it is messy for the next user. There was also no curtain in between the bowl and shower area even if there is a rod for the curtain.
And during bedtime, my roommate commented about a mosquito buzzing and later I had it too as it bit me and continued buzzing next to my ears so I am disturbed and didn't sleep well.
To sum it up, it needs a lot of improvement in terms of housekeeping. Kudos though to the staff as I see them doing good in their job.
On a rating scale of 5, I give the hotel 3*
