broken extractor fan steep stairs
The extractor fan in the bathroom didn't seem to do anything, really. also, the shower was a bit temperamental when i tried to adjust the temperature. It reminded me of a workout. and about the stairs. They were quite steep. there was a lot of stairs to get to my room.

Acceptable but some issues

limited sea view cramped bathroom
The breakfast offered a variety of choices and tasted good.
The sea view from the room was not great. It barely qualified as a sea view. Daily room cleaning was absent. The bed remained unmade, bins were not emptied, and fresh towels were not provided . The bathroom felt cramped and difficult to maneuver in. The small sink felt inadequate.
