mediocre stay NEAR the BEACH

convenient locationpoor insulationbroken lock

the location was definitely convenient, situated close to everything.

The noise insulation was quite bad. I could hear everything outside. the balcony lock WAS broken, so it remained open ALL the time. staff did not offer a solution other than advising to use the safe if i felt unsafe leaving my valuables.

Fantastic Beach Proximity

excellent locationclean roomnice sea view

The location is excellent as it is close to the beach (a very short walk!). I was pleased the room was clean and quite comfy. I really liked the sea view from the balcony and the top floor location of my room.

The room's decor looked a little tired and could use some updating.

super clean roomdaily serviceexcellent locationhelpful staff

The superior double room city view was very clean upon arrival. The daily maid service kept the room super clean (so important when you're at the beach). I found the location excellent, with easy access to nearby restaurants. The staff was helpful.

The walls seemed thin, and some noise from neighboring rooms was noticeable early in the morning.
