the staff was cute. breakfast had a good choice. on-site car parking was convenient and free. i enjoyed the hotel's proximity to the high street and the beach. the location made it easy to explore the area without relying on transportation.
i found the swimming pool paint flaking in the jacuzzi. the changing facilities were very poor, as there was only a bench with no lockers or mirrors. there was also only one shower on a wall in the swimming pool area.
