A great boutique hotel in station 1
A very good beach front location in station 1. All rooms are located in one building in front of the beach, unlike other hotels where only the expensive rooms are located at the beach front.
The hotel's cheapest room, where I stayed, is smaller and with the same price you can get a bigger room in other hotels located in station 2 or 3. In fairness, the room is clean and comfy. The wifi speed is fast enough to be used for work. The room where I stayed is located beside the main road. The noise from outside is muffled enough except for the occasional horns of vans and buses. You might need to use earplugs for muffling out the outside noise more when sleeping. One thing I miss from the room is the electric kettle. I brought some tea with me to help with my insomnia but was a bit disappointed that I can't prepare them anytime I want.
The location itself and the service provided, more than make up for the higher price. First, the location is beach front and in the better parts of White Beach. Second is the included breakfast. It's pretty hefty and can serve as a Brunch if you timed it just before 10AM. They serve from their own restaurant's menu plus they also serve some breakfast items from their sister company, the Sunny Side Cafe. Third, they also offer snacks and tea every 4PM in their guest lounge that overlooks the beach and is a perfect place to see the sunset without going out.
The staff are very friendly and accommodating and makes your stay more relaxing.
