Solid Beachside Stay

beach proximitypopular happy hourauthentic tastebeach towels

The proximity to the local beach was a major plus. Happy hour seemed quite popular. I saw many people gathering. The location near the beach offered an authentic taste of local life. The hotel provided beach towels, which i thought was very convenient.

The noise from the pub downstairs carried up to the room somewhat late at night.
