10.0/10
What a hidden gem! My stay was fantastic, with a very clean and comfortable room just steps from the beach. The location is unbeatable, surrounded by restaurants and bars, making it easy to explore. The friendly and helpful staff really made a difference during my visit. The only slight downside was a bit of noise at night from nearby establishments. Overall, great value for a beach getaway!
