large room excellent location polite staff loud fire door bright street light street noise
The room was large and well appointed. The location was excellent for access to the beach. Breakfast was good with a nice selection of items. The staff was polite and helpful.
The fire door outside my room was very loud. It banged shut often at night. The street light shone brightly into the room because the curtains did not block all light. The noise from the street made it hard to sleep well.

bathroom floor limited selection
The room looked clean initially. closer inspection revealed a lack of thoroughness. the bathroom floor was not properly cleaned. i also found the breakfast selection somewhat limited. there were no pastries available, and the hot food options seemed to lack variety. the staff seemed uninterested.

I was frustrated by a few things. the window in my room rattled constantly. It sounded like a chainsaw at 2:30 am. also, i was surprised that the chef wouldn't prepare vegetarian sausages. It felt really inflexible. these issues detracted from the stay, unfortunately.
