"We thought the air-con was extremely noisy and woke us up several times overnight, this was for bedroom 2 & 3 only as the guests in bedroom 1 could not hear this. Beach view was awesome and could not fault. We met the staff the morning after we’d checked in and they professional, courteous and helpful. The room was clean and adequately presented. The wifi box had trailing wires and was in a position where the lights were impeding our slumber. Overall, we thought the apartment was very good."
