    Second time staying here. Continues to be an excellent place to stay. Nothing too flashy about the accommodation, but it does the basics very well. Clean, large room, comfy bed, great location, secure parking, pool which also has a nice view...

    Awesome location right on the strand, but the noise was minimal. Host allowed me to book in early. The host went above and beyond as I was so sick when trying to book in, they helped me do it.
  • Kylie

    Awesome spot! Right on the Strand, close to pubs, casino and the city. Loved that the car was safe in the locked parking. Our room had a balcony with beach views, couldn’t ask for more. Ticked all the boxes for us, we’ll definitely be back!
