The location was great, the lady that checked us in was very polite and they were quick to attend the blockage with the sink. However, we also had an issue with the shower drain and the bathroom was flooded with water and we had to put our towels to clean it up. They also charges me extra for drinks when I was give. Drink vouchers for the bistro at breakfast time. But they refunded that promptly.

The staff were very friendly and helpful and the location is great, but the ocean view balcony room we booked was in fact a room looking directly into an office building with a slight view of the water over top of the office building. The office staff were very visible to us and had a direct view to our room which was very unnerving. The balcony was also locked and not useable. The room also had a musty/cleaning product smell that was very noticeable. These items unfortunately made our stay at Novotel disappointing, despite the extremely nice front desk staff and great area the hotel is located in. The room we were in should be properly advertised and not over-sold. We would not have paid as much as we did had we known the actual situation.

All round very good. Great location, close to beach and quiet. Surprisingly good bistro restaurant at the hotel and had a lovely meal the one night we stayed and then buffet breakfast the morning we left. Will be back.
