Pros:

The best parts were the location and the breakfast. They really matched the 4 stars rating. The reception team was very smiley and cheerful, which I liked.

Cons:

The furniture needs a bit of an upgrade to match the 4 stars rating.

There was an unpleasant sewage smell coming from the toilet, maybe due to old venting system. We kept the toilet lid closed to try to prevent the odor from spreading in the bathroom.

Our one night stay was short and sweet!
Pros:

The balcony was private, and had a great view of the ocean; the room was on the small side, but it was big enough for two people; the breakfast was very good, and the lady who was working there, was very friendly.

Cons:

There wasn’t any coffee in the room. We get up early, and enjoy having coffee right after waking up. Even instant coffee is better than nothing.
