harbor locationlarge breakfastnice saunamissed cleaningunchecked minibarsunday closure
the location was really good and near the water. it was minutes from an outdoor market. the breakfast buffet had a large selection and was good, though the crowds were noticeable. i enjoyed using the sauna.
My room wasn't cleaned one day, so i ran out of toilet roll at night. the minibar wasn't checked . This was quite inconvenient. i also found it odd that everything was closed on sunday, even with many guests around.
