the breakfast had many options. they even served champagne! the cleaning service was great. they made sure my room was always super clean when i returned from the beach. the staff was so kind, it was a very warm welcome. they gave me two glasses of champagne upon arrival, that was super cool!
my room had a bad smell. it seemed like the sewers or the toilet was the problem. i couldn't charge my devices when i left the room. i always had to have my key in it. the washroom was super small and did not had enough lights. it was hard for me to do my make up
