lovely viewmodern furnishingcomfy bed
My sea view room was lovely. Modern furnishings enhanced the room. The double bed provided comfy rest because of good bedding.
The water pressure in the shower was low. This made it difficult to wash thoroughly.

lukewarm waterstreet noise
The shower was less than stellar. I'm pretty sure the water alternated between lukewarm and freezing. also, the noise from the street at night was noticeable. Earplugs are a must. the room could have been cleaner too, i found some dust bunnies having a party under the bed, it wasn't great..

fragile toiletnoisy pipes
I was REALLY disappointed with a few things. The toilet roll holder was practically falling off the wall. the description mentioned a walk-in shower, but my room only had a bathtub needing replacement. The water pipes were annoyingly noisy when neighbors showered (it drove me nuts).
