15 June 2011

Liked: Close to the station and 10 minutes walk from the beach. The guy working there was helpful when asked. Room was basic but fairly clean.

Disliked: Not great for me as a solo traveller because there was no common area so you rely on meeting people in your room. Wifi didn't work in my room so I had to sit in the corridor by reception to use it. Only 2 toilets, and the light in one turned off after about 15 seconds!

Liked: en centre ville, très correct pour le prix. Un parking public juste en face, même s'il est dur d'avoir une place.

Disliked: Pas de tapis de bain, ou de serpillière et la douche fuit ... donc salle de bain rapidement innondé. Beaucoup de bruit.

Liked: Great place for making friends.

Disliked: Although there were showers within the rooms, there were no toilets... only 2 toilets for the whole place which housed probably 50 or more people. The "cleaning" done was non existent, and it was just an overall nightmare!
