perfect locationshared bathroomhard bed
The location was acceptable, close to shops and the beach.
The shared bathroom meant waiting a long time to use the shower and toilet. Parking was a NIGHTMARE!!! There was no parking near the building. The bed was hard.

Acceptable Stay with Some Issues
easy check-incramped roominadequate furniture
Check-in and check-out were easy enough.
I encountered a very narrow double bed plus a single bed in the room (I guess it was supposed to be for three people). This setup left no space for even a chair. The only option for sitting was on the bed. The room felt more suitable as a standard double room with a normal-sized double bed and a desk (I was hoping for that). It really was too cramped for three people (I was travelling alone, lucky me!).

The location was very close to all the amusements and shops. The beach was just a short walk away. Layla was very friendly , and she was helpful with all my questions. I will definitely return here because it was good value.
The curtains were not fully on the track. The room had a slope ceiling , and it took away a lot of standing space.
