9.2/10 Wonderful! (421 reviews)
Stunning views! Lovely apartment, nice kitchen area, very comfy bed. NO wardrobe or drawers. Just a slightly bent kitchen-style towel hanger with 3 hangers.What a shame. Also guests need to be fit and healthy. Loads of awkward woden steps. Don't recall being warned about this. We managed, just!

9/10 Wonderful! (167 reviews)
A good medium-sized motel with good service and spacious rooms. Despite being close to the street, the room was quiet and well equipped. The air conditioning is particularly pleasant in summer. So recommended it hits best.
