TL;DR
Offering the front-desk staff a tip (around $20) can get you upgraded to a better room; rooms around $100 usually come with sea views, while economy rooms often have no balcony at all — confirm this when booking.
Travelers often ask whether economy-category rooms come with any balcony or terrace, since some hotels give these rooms only a window with no balcony at all. It's worth confirming this detail directly with the hotel before booking.
A sea-view room cost around $100 and the view was described as stunning. Keeping the balcony door closed kept the room completely quiet despite outside noise.
If you tell the front-desk staff upfront that you'll tip them for a good room (about $20), you'll likely avoid getting a room facing the courtyard, bushes, or on the ground floor.
