Sunday afternoon hotel music level at the pool and restaurant area unbearable. The beach is a dump. Never seen such a littered beach, including broken glass, in my life.

Grounds Beautiful- Rooms Average to below Average
giraffe hotel was recommended by a friend so we decided to stay there for one night because we were in town for a wedding. The curtains had stains, the floors hadn’t been cleaned and the toilet was leaking. The refrigerator didn’t work and the man came up to fix it, but did, not cool the entire night. When we came back from the wedding, there was a wedding at the hotel and the music was so loud. We were up until 2:30 in the morning. The swimming pool looks lovely and the grounds are beautiful, but the rooms are substandard.
