stained mattress topper missed room cleaning
I was really disappointed with a few things. the mattress topper under the sheet was stained, brown and yellow. It. they did remove it, but the one they replaced it with also had stains, though not as bad. also, our room wasn't cleaned one day, even though we had the 'please clean my room' sign on the door all morning.

adequate accommodation

sea view tea bags unprofessional staff dirty room
The room included a coffee machine and tea bags, convenient. the location was great, right on the seafront. I did appreciate the added bonus of a side sea view from my room.
the staff was not very professional. the room wasn't cleaned one day, frustrating since i had placed the 'please clean my room' hanger on the door for hours.
