Mixed Experience, Balcony View with Notable Drawbacks

dirty water broken antenna
I checked in, and the room seemed decent at first. the bathroom was not clean. The shower tray had grime, and dirty water bubbled up with a terrible smell (I was really grossed out). the TV antenna cable was broken so it wasn't working. There was no Netflix either (bummer).

fantastic sea view stay

big windows quality linen
The room size impressed me. Big windows overlooked the beach directly. the first-floor sea view proved quite striking. the quality linen, particularly the towels, was appreciated for their fluffiness.
i found a strong smell of smoking. a big plastic bottle with water and cigarette butts sat on the balcony. this balcony was not sectioned off properly.
