AC could not maintain a stead and comfortable temperature. Yes, you expect to get what you pay for, but basic necessities such air conditioning should be serviceable. Additionally, lady at the front desk needs a course on basic proper interaction with visitors.

My stay has been nothing short but excellent. It’s conveniently located near the beach within a walkable distance to restaurants and shops. Housekeeping is very helpful. It’s an affordable and comfortable stay. My only complaint would be the breakfast which isn’t much of a breakfast. They offer muffins and coffee. Otherwise, I recommend.
