“A simple, clean hotel near the beach offers a good breakfast and attentive cleaning service; the location is definitely a plus. However, some rooms above the bar may suffer from noise, and basic amenities such as a safe and refrigerator are missing, plus some guests reported uncomfortable beds. A mixed bag, then, depending on what you value most.”
