Verified review

8/10 Very good

It is a basic motel, but has everything you need for a short stay: a nice hostess at the reception, clean room with microwave, tea/coffee facilities, cutlery and fridge. It was nice to have keyless entry to the room, so not to carry keys around. It is a quite location, but motel is on the hill. It is about 5-7 minutes walk downhill to the marina and beach.
