Disappointing and poorly maintained — we left after only two nights of a four-night stay.
Pros:

The location near the beach was convenient.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the condition of the room was very disappointing. The furniture was old, heavily worn and scratched. The refrigerator stopped working during our stay, and the air conditioner was extremely loud. The room also had very poor soundproofing. Guests below us were sitting outside talking and shouting loudly, and we could hear everything clearly from inside our room. Overall, the property felt outdated and poorly maintained. We booked four nights but were so disappointed with the conditions that we checked out after only two nights. We contacted the property regarding the unused nights but did not receive a response.

Will not stay here again. I am disappointed that this was your listing to stay. I have a trip booked for September and
Pros:

Beds were comfortable and hot water was no problem. Had microwave and refrigerator that was not included in website description

Cons:

No Elevator. It should be required to list if you do or do not have an elevator. We were on third floor, no offers to help with bags and no other room available when it was dismissed by front desk I am 8 weeks post op foot surgery and this was painful and tiring. I spent less time enjoying myself. Also the advertised WiFi was almost nonexistent. No connection and if able to connect, it went off every 10 min. So spending more time in my room without internet was not fun.
