8.6/10

I was pleasantly surprised by the spacious and well-equipped room, with a fridge and microwave, in a building that initially seemed a bit dodgy but turned out to be very clean and comfortable. The sea view was a nice bonus, and the bed was really cozy. However, the building's appearance from the outside may raise an eyebrow.
