lovely seafront stay

sea proximitycomfortable bedroom fridge
the room was very close to the sea, i was also within walking distance of the amusements. the full-size fridge in the room was helpful, and the bathroom was neat. the fan was excellent, especially since it was hot .. i even purchased one for home. i found the bed comfortable.
i noticed there were no options for buying food or drinks in the hotel. it would have been nicer if i could order breakfast before leaving.
