Sea Edge Beachside Hotel

Sea Edge Beachside Hotel

8/10 Good
"Well renovated and modernized, but structure still feels weak. Walking around felt like I was a giant shaking the floors, would hear banging from jsut normal activities from neighbours too. Cleanliness was decent, the counter want fully wiped when we arrived, had precious guests toothpast drips still around. Other that those, it was a pretty decent stay, perfect for resting for the night through long drives "
