    Shiny Ocean Hotel”

    The pictures are rather mis-leading. It is right smack in the middle of the market with the Pacific Ocean a distant away. The hotel needs a desperate upgrade. Breakfast is at best pathetic- cold buns, diluted soya bean milk and some local produce. No hot chocolate or at least mis-labelled on the machine. It is at best a very basic shelter contrary to what was being advertised. Grossly overpriced.

    Paid for a triple room for 4 nights, but only given amenities for 2 pax such as bottled water, towels etc. Staff turned down my reqquest for 3rd bottled water n towel. From my past experience, hotels usually provide according to the number of beds in the room. Room makeup was also very shoddy, bedsheets, pillows etc were arranged messily. And guests next door were allowed to bring their dog into the room. Would definitely not return nor recommend.
