a satisfactory visit

convenient location clean room hot water traffic noise thin curtain privacy issue
the location was quite convenient. it allowed short walks to various shops. the room was clean. i found hot water readily available in the shower.
the room faced a main road. i heard constant traffic noise. the thin curtains failed to block the light, and i could see into houses across the street. the lack of net curtains reduced privacy.

quick walk town center friendly staff helpful staff public parking convenient parking missing keys stressful keys noisy road main road check-in process delayed check-in
I found the location just amazing. it was a quick walk to the town center. friendly staff were also a total bonus. there was public parking right next door. It was so convenient!
The check-in process was not ideal. i received a message about check-in times, but upon arrival, no one was there and the keys were missing. i experienced a noisy road since my room faced the main road. I had to pick between fresh air and some quiet.

adequate stay near town

close location sea front uncomfortable mattress missing blanket
the location was very close to the town and sea front. the owners welcomed me on arrival and then left me to my own devices.
the mattress and pillows were super uncomfortable. at night it was freezing, i went downstairs to ask for a blanket and no one was around so i had to use the towels...
