Okay Stay with Some Noticeable Issues

great locationnon-functioning saunastained carpets
The location was great, providing easy access to nearby attractions.
The steam room and sauna were not functioning correctly. the decor felt quite dated, needing a refresh. It gave the place an old-fashioned feel that wasn't very appealing. The carpets in the room were stained.

Lovely seaside getaway

pleasant surprisesea viewlow pressure
I found the room to be a pleasant surprise, with a balcony that captured most of the day's sunlight. The sea view was indeed something special. friendly staff immediately resolved any issues that arose . the garden was beautiful and lit up beautifully at night.
the water pressure was quite low in the shower, a bit difficult to wash properly. i hope they resolve this issue soon.
