“The hotel's location, a short walk from the marine and dining, is a genuine advantage. Rooms prioritize simplicity and budget-consciousness, with some trade-offs like compact bathrooms and minimal amenities. Staff are accommodating, though experiences may vary, making it a practical base for exploring the area.”
