Our stay was okay. It was what was expected for the price range. A reasonable enough place to sleep for a couple nights as we explored the area. Check in was easy and staff were friendly. It was affordable and all we needed for sleeping. Room size was small but we were fine. The bed was ok. Overall a good affordable option in a nice village. Enjoyed the beach only 5 minutes drive away!
