The rooms appeared clean but could have used a more thorough sweep. It wasn’t a major issue, but if you're prone to allergies, it might be noticeable. After we vacuumed the place ourselves, it became very comfortable. The owners were very kind, and we had a wonderful stay so close to the beach. It's a great location for visiting nearby villages and going on walking trips in the surrounding areas.
