dated decor uncomfortable bed
the location was acceptable.
The room i booked, an 'executive suite sea view', felt quite dated. The decor seemed stuck in the 80s. the tv didn't work, and there were some worrying issues with the wiring of the lamps. the bed wasn't comfortable, i could feel every spring.

Average stay, some concerns

obstructed view inconsistent cleaning
The promised 'executive suite sea view' turned out to be less excellent than advertised. The view was partially obstructed. the room cleaning was inconsistent . Some days it was thorough, other days it felt rushed, annoying.
