Acceptable Stay with a Sea View

sea view clean room musty fridge dark room
The room had a lovely sea view, something I appreciated. The room was also very clean.
The fridge smelled musty. This was unpleasant. The vertical blinds had to stay closed in the morning, and this made the room dark.

Wonderful Stay Near the Beach

effective communication big room comfortable beds easy parking
The host welcomed me warmly and communicated effectively . The room size was big, it featured comfortable beds and a good-sized fridge! I had a nice view of the mountains behind. The luggage rack, biscuits, and water in the fridge were nice additions. Parking was easy and I had a spot outside for my entire stay.
The room needed a bit of redecorating.

Fantastic Stay with a View!

chilled water convenient location comfy bed
I loved that our room had chilled bottles of water in the fridge. Tea, coffee, and biscuits were also supplied. That's a really nice touch! The location was very close to the beach and town. It was so convenient for exploring. The bed was comfy!
The light in the room was quite poor. It was definitely saving energy! This made it a bit difficult to get ready in the mornings. I wish there was better lighting.
