The room was incredibly opulent and spotless. It was uncomplicated to check in and the location was convenient due to the nearby restaurants, cafes, and beaches. which were only a 2-5 min walk. The beds were of premium quality and comfortable. However the tap water tasted very weird, and as a result we had to purchase spring water from the local IGA. Additionally the sink was incredibly unsuitable for the kettle, as the it could not fit in the sink and therefore required cups to manually fill it. We had 2 night and had fun there.
