a fine place near the sea
great locationconvenient socketsearly check-inparking spaces
the location was great , very close to the beach. the room had convenient plug sockets by both sides of the bed. i was able to check in early , i appreciated that. there were parking spaces available right outside the hotel.
the pillows were not comfortable , i tried to take a nap before going out , but the noise made that hard.

happy stay near the sea
convenient locationtidy roomfriendly staffoutside parking
the location is super convenient, so close to the beach. the room was tidy, and the shared bathrooms sparkle too. staff are friendly and helpful, which makes for a nice experience. i found parking right outside, a major win for me.
the walls are a little thin, so you can hear some noise from other rooms.
