Room was more a suite
The location was handy just off the Highway in a resort type complex, the staff were polite gave us our room on arrival at one despite normal check in frome two. On the site is a great Pub with Restaurant where we had a nice lunch overlooking the river and mangroves. Huge room and King bed. Very quiet too.
