basic stay with good access

convenient locationfriendly staffelevator absence
I found the location convenient near many attractions on the promenade. the staff were very helpful and friendly . i appreciated that there was a bar available. I could have drinks and play pool without leaving the premises. the room was also kept quiet, good.
i found the lack of an elevator problematic, especially with my room being on the top floor. it made moving luggage and navigating the stairs quite difficult.
