This was our second visit to this hotel, the first time we had a fantastic holiday here with great guests and staff. Some lovely evenings by the pool with music and good company.

Unfortunately the management had changed on the second visit along with the standards and atmosphere. No bar in the evenings, poor cleanliness and staff who seemed a little browbeaten by the management.

The worst thing was having

We were apprehensive about staying here as it has mixed reports on various web sites.

It really is the pits even by third world standards. This was not our first time in India.

Our room was dark and dirty and stank of urine and stale smoke. No toilet paper, no hot water.

The "not allowed to keep your own water in your room" rip off was the final straw. We stayed for 3 hours, then moved ourselves to another 2 star hotel, which was a palace in comparison.

Why does it always happen to us? Are we alone on the day of arrival we are allocated the worst room in the hotel?

Our first room was in the bowels of the hotel with a terrace view overlooking a shabbily painted corridor. Our second room had a better view of the pool area although it did smell of urine. There was a certain amount of 'wildlife' in the garden area but I suppose they've got to live somewhere.

The staff were very relaxed with no apparent supervision or management.

There was no bar area to socialize and meet friends.

This place could benefit from a total overhaul along with some direction.

A great shame. I blame the hotel owners.

This hotel was average, we didnt expect much as it is classed as a 1-2star hotel.

The rooms were adequate, good area to sunbathe, friendly staff, although we were put in a room overlooking a disfunctional small swimming pool that was full of stagnent water, insects and god knows what else. We asked to be moved so we were.

Its about a 30mins walk to the beach, but as taxis are cheap we just got taxis.
It was a nice walk though, i decided to walk one day, stopped off at a few bars on the way.

Our expectation was that we would be stopping in a hotel of a similar standard to a low cost Greek or Turkish Hotel - and we were not disappointed.

We just wanted a bit of peace and quiet and the opportunity to do what we wanted without people being in our face all the time - and we were not disappointed. No discos here and no hard sell.

The rooms were cleaned daily, the mini bar fridge in each room was restocked daily and all the staff were extremely helpful. We made use of the drinks in the fridge every day and at the end of the holiday I paid about

This is an appalling hotel. Don't do it. Location is OK, but that's it. Rooms are adequate, but the exterior is really shabby. Worst of all is the attitude of the staff. Unhelpful, and even by Indian standards, unhygienic.
No bar, just a locked cupboard with a few drinks in. According to the minibar rules, you can't keep your own water inside or you will be charged.
If you still feel like going after all that, don't give your postcards to the reception with the money for the stamps as we did. Not one card winged it's way home.
