The room was incredibly comfortable, not to mention views over the sea from the window. The bathroom was nice and it had shower facilities, a hair dryer, and bath sheets for my convenience. All of the staff members where accommodating and superfriendly. The location was super, right in the sea front, and the bed soft.
