Top mais un peu « sale »
Pros:

La proximité avec la plage, le bar et restaurant ainsi que le personnel. Le petit déjeuner était aussi très bon.

Cons:

Nous avons trouvé l’hôtel un peu sale. Les serviettes dans la chambre n’étaient pas propres, nos tasses à thé non plus et le sol non plus. Nous avons également retrouvé beaucoup de poussière dans nos bols pour le petit déjeuner.

We enjoyed our stay.
Pros:

We enjoyed the breakfast.

Cons:

The door to the bathroom stuck. I would have liked if a staff member had been on hand when my sister and I left.
