Pros:

Location was great. Breakfast was also fantastic.

Cons:

Room for price was nothing fancy, balcony was small with just a stool and x2 chairs. Checkin didn't have enough staff waiting to assist, waiting with heavy bags was not ideal.

Not having basic amenities you don't have to pay for was not ideal a jug to fill for cold water,
