    view room
    poor communication
    door issues

    Great view of the harbor, room size, quiet evenings

    Receiving self-check-in details only 45 minutes before arrival is really inconvenient!!! Clear instructions for the front door closure would prevent issues with guests leaving it ajar or slamming it shut, which disrupts everyone nearby!!!

    great views, but lacking a few comforts

    The triple room with a sea view provided a stunning panorama that made my mornings special. The location along the harbor allowed for easy access to explore the vibrant town and scenic surroundings.

    Unfortunately, the room showed some wear and tear in the furnishings.

    The location was fantastic, right along the harbor with easy access to shops and restaurants. The sea view from our room was truly something special, making mornings really delightful.

    fantastic location
    cozy room
    tight bathroom access
    inconsistent heating

    The location right by the harbour was fantastic for scenery and dining options. While the room was cozy, it was definitely on the smaller side, making the bathroom access a bit tight. the heating wasn't consistent, which made for a chilly night.

    breathtaking view
    comfortable bed
    small room
    high price
    amenity limitations

    The Double Room with Sea View offered breathtaking views that enhanced the overall experience. Cleanliness was impeccable, and the bed was comfortable for restful nights. the room felt quite small considering the price, and more amenities could have been added to improve the stay. Despite these minor issues, the accurate entry instructions made check-in a breeze.

    comfy bed
    cozy radiator
    relaxation terrace
    kettle space issue

    We really enjoyed our stay, especially the comfy bed and how the little radiator made the chilly room cozy. The hotel offered great relaxation options like a lovely seating area and a nice terrace to unwind on. The lack of designated kettle space was a bit tricky, but it didn't take away from our experience. 😊
