The hotel has a great location, making it easy to access the beach and local bars. The beds were super comfortable, but I had a bit of trouble with the bathroom door due to the uneven floor. Also, I wished there was a kitchenette in the room. Overall, it offers decent value for money, though there are some limitations.
