Halpa iso huoneisto,mutta ei mikään loisto lukaali

Nopea ja vaivaton sisäänkirjautuminen.Rakennus kuluneen oloinen.Huoneisto todella tilava.Olohuone iso ja kiiltävä.Jääkaappiin oli valunut jotain kalalientä ja kuivunut sinne.Edes pesu ja tuuletus ei auttanut.Muutoin henkilökunnan apu tuli aina tosi nopeasti.Soitto vain ja kaikki järjestyi,2 isoa uima-allasta,mutta ei aurinkotuoleja.Sijainti loistava.Vastapäätä oli ostoskeskus ja meri.Hyviä ravintoloita ja huikeat auringonlaskut.
