Room was okay but the staff was lacking.
Pros:

The price was okay and the location was good.

Cons:

We arrived at night and no one was there to answer the door and no instructions had been left. We stood outside for 20 minutes until someone came from across the street. When the guy finally came to the door he said, “oh sorry, I didn’t have the phone with me,” just as someone else flitted past behind him. He then gave us the keys and pointed us downstairs while offering no help with our four bags - there were two of us. When I asked him to hold on while I got the bags down the stairs he just kept giving instructions and was pretty rude. The next night we went to the bar/restaurant and a customer came up to ask for table water, after they walked away the guy behind the bar made a joke about taking them outside to show them where the water was. They really need better staff with better attitudes toward their customers.

Pros:

Cole location to where we needed to go + restaurant upstairs

Cons:

Reception staff were extremely rude. Got there 5 mins before check in and they basically refused to speak with us. Then she finally allowed to check in I think the lady said all of 2 words to us - room was ok. Chairs and window sills were covered in dust. Dead bugs also around windows

Pros:

Très bien placé pour aller directement à la plage ou faire des courses pour manger. Belles balades le long de la côte !

Cons:

Les fenêtres des chambres ne s'ouvrent pas !
Dommage pour renouveler l'air quand on reste plusieurs nuits. Il fallait donc ouvrir la porte d'entrée et mettre la climatisation !
