Just what we needed a short get away that was value for money. Very enjoyable.
Pros:

We liked that it was within walking distance to eating and it was very close to the beach and easy walkways. Loved sitting on the balcony and just listening to the waves and watching all the activity around us.
Liked that parking was secure.
We were on the 4th floor, studio and we were more than happy with the size of our room and the facilities that it offered.
The hamper to enjoy was an unexpected surprise but one that we very much enjoyed.
Will definitely be back and will recommend this lovely spot to friends.

Cons:

If we were an elderly couple we may have had issues with getting in and out of the shower due to having to step up into it, but having the rail there did help.
