Acceptable but with issues

The location was acceptable.
The room felt dated and not very clean. Beds seemed unstable. It sounded like they would fall apart. A strong smell of food cooking filled the building each morning.

I found the location perfect! It is near all the arcades, and the town center is quite close. I loved that the bedroom was a good size for my children and me. It was so cozy!
The room could benefit from a little updating.

The location is excellent with immediate connection to both wifi and parking. the room included a balcony and a sea view. i was allowed into my room before the standard check-in time. I appreciated that a lot.
the shower was only suitable for someone 4ft 5 or under. the shower head wouldn't stay up. i also noticed cobwebs in the light shade.
