reasonable accommodation
great communication early luggage drop complimentary beers small room cramped bathroom noisy floors
communication from the owner was great before my arrival. i received quick answers to my questions. it was helpful that i could leave my bags early. the room matched the description, and there were beers in the fridge plus croissants in the morning.
the room felt smaller than i expected, actually. it was a bit cramped, and the bathroom was very small too. the floors were wooden and quite noisy. i could hear other guests walking and talking at night.

just okay..
small room noisy floors
The room felt smaller than i anticipated. also, the lack of daily cleaning felt odd, especially after beach visits resulting in sandy floors. it got quite noisy because of the wooden floors. Every step and conversation from other guests echoed, and it made sleeping difficult the first night. twice.

short walk simple check-in convenience store
The location is a short walk to the beach. The owner quickly answered my messages and check-in was simple. Parking was right outside the hotel. A convenience store was a short walk away.
The floors are wooden so I could hear other guests walking.
