Subpar Condition, Some Issues

large hole mold issue
The location is quite convenient, right on the beach.
I encountered some significant issues . The family room I booked was not well-kept. There was a large hole in the wall and mold in the bathroom area. I thought the room was severely overpriced, given its condition and size.
