"Do not stay here. Honestly, it’s cute and aesthetic, but not worth the price at all. I’d just go for a drink or sit at the Surf. There are way better places to stay. Reasons: - the staff (most, not all) were insanely rude - the floor of our room was sandy as were the sheets so was it even cleaned!? ..."
