A good location, near the beach and about a half hour walk to shops & restaurants. Comfy beds and nice lounge area. Nice touch to have washing up liquid, cloth and some basics like milk and tea etc. However some more cleaning products would be good, along with a second t towel. The oven wasn't the best, think the seal is going, and the frying pan's handle was wobbly. Having off street parking was a bonus.
