Pros:

Квартира на 4 этаже видовая , это супер красиво. Не нужно искать локацию - закаты и рассветы прям у тебя дома
Милый хозяин
Можно бесплатно ходить к котикам которые живут на 1 этаже, они очень красивые , ласковые
Вокруг очень много мест где можно покушать, вид на пляж и вообще всё в шаговой доступности
За эту цену жилья нет поблизости, это очень достойный вариант для не брезгливых
Если бы не было запаха, то я бы рекомендовала на 10 из 10
Так как нужно объективно оценивать условия и изначально понимать на что ты соглашаешься и по бюджету и по классу места проживания

Cons:

1. Мое постельное белье было с дырками , я бы простила это, не привередлива. Но когда на 4 день проживания я попросила о первой уборке - я обнаружила эти самые дырки на другом углу кровати. Тоесть простыню перевернули и оставили ту же
2. Бывают дни , я не знаю от чего это зависит, но когда в твоей комнате даже на 4 этаже очень сильно пахнет из туалета кошачим лотком и запах распространяется по комнате
3. Очень слабый кондиционер. Без него никак , а с ним спать - дует прям на тебя
4. Нужно понимать что отель маленький и есть только лестница
