The tin-roofed house outside the window is extremely noisy whenever it rains.
Google, September 2026, rated 3/5 by this guest
The downsides are that the rooms are relatively small and the soundproofing is poor; you can still hear traffic noise at night, so it might not be suitable for those sensitive to noise.

Unexpected charges and refunds4 of 2991 in 75 reviews
When we got there the man tried to charge extra for my 14 year old son who I had already paid for, we had come off a 19 hour flight I just wanted to go to bed, oh and the beds where rock hard
Booking network, January 2026, rated 1/10 by this guest
Its a little expensive for what it is, the swimming pool is a little run down and the bar is very expensive also it states children stay for free but if you want a bed for them to sleep in its 600b per night 😅 and the extra bed is not comfortable at all the mattress is extremely thin.
