average experience overall

convenient locationno hot waterfrequent alarms
the location proved convenient, a short walk to both the beach and the town center.
I encountered some issues . there was no hot water available for three days, so i had to use a kettle to fill the bath. fire alarms went off multiple times during the night. I suspect smokers triggered them, though staff addressed them quickly..
