Every room has Sea view - this view is way better than some of the expensive hotels on Marine Drive.
Reasonably priced hotel with sea view worth waking up to. Clean and decent sized rooms with functional bathroom.
Friendly staff who go the extra mile to offer great service.
Lots of food options within walking distance.
Very convenient location.
