Prijs-kwaliteitverhouding is heel ver te zoeken.
Pros:

De locatie is net buiten het dorp. Niet ideaal, maar op loopafstand van de restaurants en de zee. Al ligt de zee verder weg dan de 350 meter die ze stellen. Het personeel is aardig.

Cons:

Wat een teleurstelling was dit. Voor ontzettend veel geld krijg je geen kamer, maar een hok. Zonder ziel, zonder sfeer. Er zat geen druk op de kraan van de wasbak, dus er was geen stromend water. Je moest je handen onder de douche wassen. Helaas liep het water niet weg, waardoor de hele badkamer blank stond. Ze zeggen dat er wifi is, maar die deed het niet. De airco maakt zoveel herrie, dat je er niet van kunt slapen. Het zwembad ligt in de knetterende zon. Zonder beschutting en met een kapot bedje.

Sehr enttäuschend. Bilder täuschen. Preis Leistung miserabel
Pros:

Lage ist gut. 500 m zum Strand oder der Stadt.

Cons:

Wifi hat nicht funktioniert. Gastgeber war eine Katastrophe. Schmutzige Zimmer. Müll wurde nie geleert. Pool nicht badetauglich.

This was a decent place to stay but we wouldn’t stay again particularly for the price
Pros:

It was close to the Main Street and the beach. They had a refreshing outdoor shower and pool after being at the beach or the town. Quite basic accommodation and facilities, so it’s not the best value. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The blinds were not block out so the sun streaked in at 6am followed by the bulldozer digging the vacant block next door. Later that night there was an electricity problem on the street so the air conditioning wasn’t working. It was very hot at night because of this. We contacted the staff on WhatsApp but there was no answer and they did not discuss the situation with us. The room was a little bit small and there were a few insects on the roof and walls. The place was very quiet and lacked any vibe or atmosphere.

Overall would not recommend.
Pros:

Good location, rooms are alright. Aircon worked quite well.

Cons:

Was not clean whatsoever, literally thousands of ants and other bugs outside our rooms. Had to move from one room to another because the water ran out.
Sunlight entered the room at ungodly hours as the curtains were thin. Beds were extremely uncomfortable.
Nobody was there to receive us and let us check in, called and waited for about 30 mins. Others rocked up and then left soon after not even spending the night.
Outside looks nothing like it does in the pictures, pool is not clean and on arrival the outside was an absolute mess.
After moving no blanket sheets were provided, so we asked and they said they didn’t have any.

Exceptional
Pros:

I had a wonderful stay! The rooms were incredibly comfortable and just a short walk from both the beach and the city, making it easy to explore everything. The staff and owner were genuinely friendly, always ready to help with a smile.
