The property is surrounded by green, close enough to the beach that you can walk, but there is no view from your room. The property is bit old, and not very clean, we found the previous guest earings on the night stand. Rooms are small but with high ceiling, "neigbours" can be loud if they choose to chat sitting outside. Staff are helpful and very friendly.

We really enjoyed our stay. Great location, walkable to the beach but far enough away to be quiet in the evenings. Restaurant served a decent breakfast and the dinner offerings were limited, but great quality.
