cute staffpoor sound insulationwater leakage
the staff was cute (and kind to me and my wife).
i was annoyed by the noise. the room had no sound insulation at all. i could hear everything that the next room was talking about. some small leakage caused water to drip down in the middle of the sunbed. it was really frustrating, because i needed quiet.
The hotel staff were very friendly. The breakfast buffet offered a good selection of food. The gym had sufficient equipment. The bar provided lovely sea views.
My room did not have adequate sound insulation. I could hear conversations in the adjacent room. Some water dripped from above onto the sunbed. This was inconvenient.
