adequate place to Stay

seaview room wide selection relaxing ambience awful shower peeling paint disruptive fridge
I booked a seaview room. The view is just superb of the beautiful beach. The breakfast was tasty and had a wide selection of options. I loved the ambience of the dining and bar area it felt very relaxing.
The room we had was not up to standard i think. The shower just dripped, awful. Paint peeled off the bathroom walls. I found the fridge sounded like it dispensed ice all the time, disruptive at night.
