    I absolutely loved the recent renovations in our room! Despite the shower water getting everywhere due to the short glass panel, the location across from the train station was so handy. The staff went above and beyond, even bringing us delicious toasted sandwiches. The soundproofing was a dream, but the lack of outdoor furniture on the balcony was a miss. The security could use a friendlier attitude, but overall, we had a delightful stay with a great night's sleep.

    Absolutely loved the room with the cute balcony. Clean, comfy bed and room for my surf gear-awesome! Really enjoyed the food downstairs, top-notch. I even managed to catch some zzz's despite those noisy planes. Best part? the staff let us stash our bags, so no lugging around in the hot sun. Staying again on my next eco-adventure. Melbourne-born, family man who digs sustainable stays. Cheers!
