Reasonable and fairly priced
Pros:

The positives: it was clean; fairly priced and very well located, close to the beach AND the train station.

Cons:

There was no plug for the bath. I asked at reception and was given one that didn’t fit.
The room should have had a kettle. Everyone likes to make a tea or coffee.
The server at breakfast looked fierce. She didn’t smile once.
People standing in the corridor at 11.30, talking very loudly, woke me from a restful sleep. They were directly outside my room.

Pros:

Cons:

La chambre n’était pas très propre. Il y avait du sable par terre et il n’y avait pas de papier toilette à disposition. De manière générale, l’hygiène laissait vraiment à désirer.
