I was thankful for its prime location. Everything was easily accessible by foot. I found a fantastic restaurant right next door that offered affordable breakfast and lunch options. I also appreciated the availability of drinking water on the first floor. It was very convenient.
I noticed some noise later in the evening. It seemed to come from staff conversations outside the room, a slight disturbance.

convenient location and refreshing pool
perfect locationwelcome escape
The location is perfect for exploring. the pool provided a welcome escape after a day of sightseeing. It was a great way to relax. there were plenty of chairs available around the pool
instead of a shower, there was a weird deep bathtub with no curtains or screen. water went everywhere. there was not a single hook or shelf for clothes and towels in the bathroom.

the pool area is attractive, i thought. it is very close to both bus stations and not far from the beach. the cafe next door serves excellent breakfast. i found a great little bar and restaurant on the edge of the park just a couple of blocks away.
the shower head was faulty and that resulted in the bathroom flooding when i took a shower. there was also poor drainage from the shower tub. (not ideal, but manageable).
