peeling paint mold in bathroom
The staff was friendly. I guess that's something. parking was available.
Oh, where do i even begin. the peeling paint and mold in the bathroom really set the mood. accessing the second floor room involved navigating some treacherous stairs. It was like an obstacle course with luggage.

dirty floors sink hairs
The location was acceptable. It was close to the beach.
The room was not clean at all. It seemed like ages since it had been properly cleaned. i found hairs in the sink, and the floors were quite dirty, disappointing. i am happy our stay was only one night.

decent stay near the beach

large room comfortable bed nice pastries old room window latch bad smell
my room was a superior king room. i liked that the room was a large size and clean. the bed was also comfortable. the complimentary pastries and coffee were a nice bonus (i had a muffin).
The room felt a bit old. the window didn't latch properly. It took a while to fix it. the room had a bad smell when we returned in the evening.
