Terrible!

I was first given a ground floor pool side room. The smell of chlorine and bleach was so overwhelming I had to move. It was also filthy - the bathroom floor needed a very good clean. The second room I was given a little better - but with a full enclosed balcony with two plastic chairs. There were people knocking on doors, doors banging and closing and people holding various conversations late into the night. I paid $180 for this hotel. It was marginally better than a youth hostel.

Reception was friendly. Towels and blankets obviously quite used and have stains. And I am 100% sure I forgot my charger in the room when checking out, but the staff insisted that they didn’t find it. So either they do a very bad job at cleaning up the room, or the cleaning staff kept it.

We stayed at Coral Tree Inn twice, first time a first floor room (no lift so be prepared to carry bags), second time a ground floor room (much easier). Rooms were basic but certainly adequate. Beds were comfortable. Hot buffet breakfast was included and was excellent. Good range of foods and plenty of it. Staff were excellent and always very helpful.

Was Ok. Clean. Central

The room was very small and I was hoping for a room with a bathtub, but should have made a special request for this. The balcony faced a awful setting of someone’s junk in a shed but I guess that can’t be helped.
