Convenient, great staff
Pros:

There is a bus stop right in front of this hotel, which is why we chose it for a stopover on our travels. It was reasonably priced, convenient, and available. Overall, the hotel room was small but clean. The bed was harder than I prefer, and, aside from the cold and hot faucets being separate, it was a decent stay. They have complimentary water, biscuits, and coffee/tea. That's a nice touch after a day of travel. We tried the restaurant for both dinner and breakfast, and we walked down to the beach. So if you need a place of rest while traveling, it works well for that. But what makes this place amazing is how accommodating the staff were - they were eager to help and offer solutions for food allergies, comfort, etc. The staff earned the 10-star rating.

Cons:

I'm not a big fan of the cold and hot water coming out of different faucets. I'm not used to that and it makes it difficult to wash hands.
