sea view comfortable bed room seat worn frame tired decor accommodation cost
i stayed in a room with a sea view. the bed was a superking and very comfortable. i liked having seats in the room.
My window was not easy to open. The external window frames were quite worn. i felt the decor looked tired. i thought the standard could have been better, given the cost.
