I booked a room for four adults and paid a significantly higher price. I was disappointed to find that all they did was cram an additional bed into a small room, leaving barely enough space to move around. Given the extra cost, I expected more space and comfort, but unfortunately, that was not the case. I don’t mind paying extra for enhanced quality, but I didn't receive that during my stay. On a positive note, I must admit the location is great
