soft mattress dated decor
the staff at the desk was indeed friendly and helpful, as one expects from a respectable hotel.
the mattress proved too soft for my liking, and i found myself tossing and turning throughout the night. the decor also seemed rather dated, a stark contrast to the modern aesthetic i typically prefer. such deficiencies are not easily overlooked.

large wardrobe very nice balcony replacement of coffee no body wash
The hotel location was fantastic. It puts me near the beach very quickly. My room included a very large wardrobe and a fridge. A balcony also overlooked the courtyard, it was very nice.
The room was very clean. The shower was hot and had very good pressure. we had to ask daily for replacement of coffee, tea and sugar. There where no body wash provided, it's standard everywhere else.
