clean room sea view
The room was very clean and well-appointed!!! The large double room had great rooftop views of the sea. The hosts communicated excellently, and the room was comfortable.
The walk to and from the beach is steep.

adequate stay. but a bit underwhelming
cramped bathroom noisy street
the location was quite good. it was a short walk to the beach and town centre.
the room felt quite small. the bathroom was especially cramped and lacked a lock. also, the street outside was noisy and i couldn't sleep with the window open.
