We stayed in the Deluxe twin ocean view. The room is clean and modern. The bed is large, enough to for 2 persons to sleep. The location is right across the beach. Convenience store is just outside the hotel. The only problem is the room is very stuffy and hot. We went mid November. The aircon was turned off centrally so we couldn't switch it on.

Great location hotel for Gwangalli beach
It was a lovely hotel, location was great. The bed however was not. It was too firm. Also great view but it was really noisy. We had ear plugs at night but you could still hear the noise below.
