Great location
You cannot beat the location and view and this is what you are paying for. Many good cafes and restaurants near by and right on the beach. Very comfortable bed and a large room. However, small details let the quality down considering the cost of the rooms e.g. Broken hair dryer, missing hand soap and other amenities in the bathroom until the last housekeeping service etc.
