Decent Spot Near the Beach

convenient locationgood water pressurecomfy bedsmall roomflushing issuefaulty remote
The location was really convenient. Many restaurants and shops were close by. The shower had good water pressure. The bed was comfy, so I slept well.
The room was quite small. It felt a bit cramped. The toilet didn't flush properly. This was an inconvenience. The TV remote needed new batteries, so the TV didn't work at first.

The location was excellent for accessing local amenities. i found easy access without needing any keys, a plus. the room had everything i needed. It was very convenient.
The bathroom was not the most practical, the shower design felt a bit off to me. also, the cleanliness wasn't perfect. It could have been better. i noticed there was no liquid soap in the dispenser.

i found the location very nice and the value for money very good. the room size was good for what we needed . the bed proved quite comfy.
