Rooms and beds are repeatedly described as very comfortable and spacious; a few minor issues (toilet handle, creaky floors) noted but overall room quality is high.
Amenities
9
Amenities such as pool, fitness center, coffee, cookies and convenient parking are commonly mentioned positively; breakfast service and grab-and-go options add value.
Value for Money

Super comfy beds
Pros:

The bed was soooo comfy! I usually struggle with sleep in my own house and always have a hard time sleeping in a new place. I had one of the best nights sleep I’ve had in a while there.

Also loved the cookies and the coffee!

Cons:

Only negative I can think of was that you had to hold the handle down on the toilet for a while haha. Very minor.

Great location, but cleanliness and breakfast could be improved.
Pros:

The location was very good and convenient. It was easy to get to both the city and the beach, and it didn’t take much time. The parking was also very convenient.

Cons:

The room could have been cleaner. We found hair on both beds and had to change the bedding ourselves. The floors were also dirty, and the bathroom floor creaked. Breakfast was very basic, and food was not always replenished quickly.
