Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious with plenty of room for two beds and a comfy sofa. The shower facility was excellent, and I appreciated the well-stocked tea tray and soft towels. The choice of breakfast was great, and the service was polite and friendly. The location was excellent, just off the main road and close to attractions. The dining experience was fantastic with a cooked breakfast and friendly staff. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay very comfortable.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spotless, comfortable, and I received a warm welcome from Veronica. The atmosphere was so relaxed, and the breakfast was absolutely delightful. However, it did get a bit too warm at times. The location was ideal, being close to both the harbor area and the city center. The dining experience was superb, with plenty of fresh options available. Overall, a great value for money!
