We felt welcomed and everything went smoothly. Late check in was managed by safe key pick up. Would definitely recommend staying there and come back again. Staff was friendly. There is even a paid laundry on the premises. The only thing missing is á shower-changing room from when one has checked out and come back from the beach.
