Fantastic Stay!
grassy courtyardclean linenworking appliancehigh noise
The room was spacious with a grassy courtyard! Clean linen was provided, and the cleaners did a stellar job replenishing towels. All appliances were in good working order. the TV and internet worked perfectly. The check-in and check-out processes were seamless and quick.
The noise level was pretty high at night. I could hear music and thumping until midnight. It was followed by neighbors partying in their courtyards until the early hours.

Reception staff were friendly. They offered helpful assistance. Restaurant staff were also kind and accommodating (they even brought the dinner to my room!). I certainly felt looked after during my time there.

Adequate overnight stay
convenient locationroom kettleroom cobwebslarge spider
The location was very convenient. It was close to everything I needed, including a short walk to the beach. The room had a fridge and kettle, HANDY.
There were cobwebs all over my room. I also saw a large spider on the ceiling in the room, not ideal.
