“The Alexander offers surprisingly generous room sizes; I noted reports of both spaciousness and cleanliness, a welcome find. Select rooms also frame snippets of the sea, and functional, reliable Wi-Fi adds a practical layer. While details suggest areas for improvement, the core experience focuses on providing ample personal space.”
