Excellent Seaside Hotel

The staff at the front desk were both friendly and efficient. I appreciated that. Breakfast on the rooftop provided a beautiful view. The room was very clean, and I liked that.
The safe in my room did not work properly, and when I tried to call reception, the phone also did not function. It was disappointing.
