I stayed at Benikea Hotel Acacia for four nights and found it to be a nice boutique hotel, though the room was a bit small. The location is great, just a short walk to the shopping belt. but the bathroom could use a bit more light. Overall, I enjoyed my stay, especially with the big terrace to keep my luggages.
