mixed feelings about my stay

noise level loud talking
the location was indeed perfect, right on the seafront.
i was disappointed with the noise level. guests congregated outside my window late into the evening and talked loudly. this made it difficult to relax, especially after a long day of travel.

acceptable stay, SOME disappointments

unclean basin inconsistent wi-fi
The location felt great directly on the seafront.
Room cleanliness seemed questionable. The basin was not clean. The wi-fi did not work consistently, made planning activities difficult. It seems pricier given that it's only a room, food and drinks are not included.

basic stay with some issues

unprofessional staff constant noise
The hotel felt overpriced for what it offered. i found the staff's appearance unprofessional, with unkempt t-shirts. additionally, i was disturbed by noise. I could clearly hear conversations and doors shutting from nearby rooms. i think improvements are necessary to justify the price.
