WARNING!
This is a review for families and couples.
parents beware!!
There a signs EVERYWHERE not allowing kids to play outside.
“No skateboarding
No riding of bicycles
No rollerbladers
No scooters
No playing of all games
All are strictly prohibited from the premises!”
That is the exact signage they have on every wall you turn to on the premises. Mind you, they have the most lovely flat large concrete area that kids would just love to play on?? Turns out they hate it..
WARNING!!
There is no toaster
There is no kettle!!
There was no dishwashing liquid!!
There was no SPONGE!!
AND THERE WAS NO TOILET PAPER!!!
I arrived late checkin at 1:30am to find you were given close to nothing else In terms of amenities, not even to get you by for half a night til you scramble to buy all your own stuff....??
Place is over 50 years old, but clean...
The other reviews are all about how clean the place is, and how close the place is to the beach/shops. Not good enough to not provide any other simple and cheap EXPECTED service/facilities!
Unfortunately you are expected to buy your own sponge and dishwashing agents to clean THEIR own dishes......
Agent was quick to respond before check-in, agent NEVER responded there after, to any questions or assistance.
You have to pay more for linen, the agent pre warns you of this, that includes towels and anything else really....I should have seen this tell tale sign of tightness...
The beds are linen free but comfortable. The furniture is in good order (clock doesn’t work though , not sure if I was also expected to replace the battery for them), the place is a couple of blocks and a main road away from the beach.
Fosters seems to be in the middle of a major make-over development stage so there are trucks and cranes on every block, good news for fosters as it is in desperate need.
Although there is so much going on with constructions everywhere they don’t make you feel like it’s in your face which is good.
All in all I give the place 1.5 stars. This would have been 3 stars if the agent/host would not be so darn tight!!
