weak flow dated decor
the location was great! it was close to everything i needed.
I had some issues with the room. the shower had a really weak flow and adjusting the temperature took ages, what a waste. plus, the decor felt a bit old. It definitely could use some updating.

average stay near the beach

clean room tea coffee microwave dated interior weak shower many stairs
The room was quite clean. it was also close to shops and the beach. the host provided tea and coffee facilities. A fridge and microwave were also in the room.
It was a bit dated i thought. the shower took a while to get warm, and the water flow was weak. there were many stairs. This place isn't suitable if you are disabled.
