Pros:
- Reception staff were nice and welcoming.
- Close proximity to the beach.
- Blackout curtains were good.
Cons:
- Although there has seemingly been a recent makeover you can tell that the facilities are run down, particularly noticeable on staircases.
- The whole corridor we were staying in smelled damp and foisty. This extended into our room.
- Linen and towels were consistently stained despite changes.
- Housekeeping didn’t top up water/teabags several times. They also removed toilet paper from the bathroom once, leaving us with none.

Pros: It's convenient and the staff is generally very friendly and helpful. They also have what you would expect from a hotel near the beach - beach towels, mesh bag and slippers. They also provide a crib upon request.
Cons: The bathtub is in the corridor and doesn't have a shower head. As such, the water cools down very fast and the sand or dirt is very hard to drain off. We had asked for additional beach towels and bath towels (because there were 3 of us) and had to do so every day as the staff just didn't take note of it when clearing our room. They also will not rinse/change the coffee cups unless you place them in the sink. There's very little counter space in the toilet to put your toothbrushes and toothpaste (oh, please remember to bring your own or buy one as they don't provide). They could've added some shelves next to the sink since there wasn't enough space for counter top.

Rooms where spacious and clean, good air conditioner. However the hallways and elevators etc were not clean at all. Also lots of mosquitos in our room when we first checked in. Breakfast was very good, however a bit expensive. Be careful when you book this hotel through expedia, because there are 4 different sugar marina’s in this area and this one has the wrong address writing..

If you're on a budget this place is ok. It's a bit dated, my room smelled really bad like mould. It was relatively clean. Internet wasn't the best. Pillows were pretty good. Air Con with remote was good. Personally I would rather stay at a more cleaner and modern place and won't stay here again.

Bokade rum med pool. Luktade frultansvärt i det rummet så bad om att byta.
Fick ett annat rum. Bättre men fortfarande en dålig lukt. Väldigt små familjerum.
Städningen var inte bra.
Bra ac och sköna sängar.
Frukosten var sådär. Mycket folk och ofräsht. Ofta slut på mat.
Hotel was pretty average.. But clean.
Breakfast staff, seemed very unhappy.
Normally Thai people are so lovely, the girls working in the restaurant didn't even greet us each day. The waiting staff need to improve.
