Surf Motel

Honestly not great. Location ok, close to beach and security was fine, however rooms are well below par compared to other venues in the area, especially considering asking price. Service was least accommodating out of the all the hostels I stayed at. Atmosphere: none. Half the building felt as if was under construction.

The hotel itself was really nice and the rooftop pool/bar good, the staff were really friendly and approachable. We probably could have got a cheaper hotel with breakfast included and in a better location, it is down a dark path and near a night club. The bathroom is also like a wet room so everything got soaked. The rooms were really clean so that was good. We could have got better value money elsewhere but the rooftop pool and staff were good.

I was not informed that the rooftop pool would be closed for renovations during my stay. The pool area was tarped off, no one was working on it but there were construction sounds from the rest of the hotel. The hotel itself is down an unpaved, cracked street with undeveloped lots next door where trash sits. Anyone can walk down the street and walk into the hotel at any point. The pillow had black spots on it (I had showered). They say they have a detergent/hard water issues; not mold.
