Great Location Roosters woke us at 4am
Shower is horrible no water pressure not enough flow. Took forever to get wet and to wash off. We were woken up every morning at 4:00 by Roosters. Good location easy to walk everywhere. Very clean. The Balcony and chairs were comfortable. We had a 2nd floor room. The bed was comfortable. Well maintined
