Grand établissement mal insonorisé, fréquenté par de nombreuses familles bruyantes
Pros:

Appartement spartiate assez spacieux, et proche de la plage.

Cons:

Mal insonorisé. Établissement fréquenté par des familles avec enfants: bruyant dès 6h du matin.
Portes se ferment en claquant … donc de nombreux claquements de portes au milieu de la nuit.
