Acceptable Stay with Some Drawbacks
uncomfortable bedsmall room
The location was convenient, I admit that. I stayed in Room 8. The bed was very uncomfortable. It affected my sleep quality. The room felt overpriced, considering its size. I thought the room was smaller than I expected.

a decent stay overall
great locationdelicious breakfastold carpetuncomfortable mattress
the location was great. the hotel is very close to the beach and just a short walk into town (which is exactly what i wanted). i also enjoyed the breakfast. it was delicious and freshly prepared.
my room, while clean, needs some updating. the carpet seemed old and the mattress wasn't very comfortable and this made sleeping difficult. also, the price was a bit high, considering the room size.
