Location was good that’s the only good thing I have to say. The staff was nice too. However, This room is for people who don’t mind small spaces/imperfections. The shower door was messed up and falling off. The bed was so uncomfortable. I could hear seagulls making noise all day and night. The TV had no channels in English..
