blissful seaside slumber
peaceful dormprivate showerfree storage
The female-only dorm was peaceful. i felt safe and was able to relax. having a private shower and bathroom within the room was a major plus for me. i used the conference room. It gave me privacy for an important video meeting. free luggage storage before check-in was helpful, though it is a general, locked room.
The noise from a nearby nightclub went on until 4 am. I forgot my noise-canceling headphones.

the staff was super friendly and the hotel had a good POSITION for exploring.
the checkin guy was one of THE least service minded person i ever came across in any hotel. i ended up in the same dorm as a mentally ill person and another old fellow that was snoring like A train engine and then got up early in the morning and put on his programme on the phone ignoring everybody else.
