Satisfied stay

clean room comfortable bed great temperature
My room was clean when I arrived, this was important. The bed was comfortable and I loved the view from my room. The water temperature in the shower was great, I appreciate that. I would stay here again for sure.
I detected a slight smell from the floor in the room. It might be from the old carpet. I think this should improve. It did not affect my stay overall.

great location short walk comfy beds old name closed reception no breakfast
The location is great. It is a short walk to the beach. There are places to eat nearby. I tried a Korean restaurant on the same road. My room had a tv and a fridge. The beds were comfy and the staff were responsive by phone (which was reassuring).
The hotel was difficult to find. It still uses an old name. Reception was closed and no breakfast was available (I found this a bit inconvenient). I had trouble figuring out where to leave the key when I checked out. I rang many times and no one answered the phone.
