Unhappy customer
Booked room with ocean views, first room had ocean glimpses through the trees. Got moved due to noisey neighbours at 2am for hours (not properties fault) next day got moved rooms which was 1 floor higher and had much better views. Staff initially said they had no vacant rooms to move to but once we pushed the situation more they all of sudden had a spare room. Staff were very friendly though. Extremely unhappy with the first room, it should be advertised as ocean glimpses not ocean views. Reluctant to stay with this hotel again.
