Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean and nice rooms with a sea view, which are lovely, warm, and spacious. Accessing the rooms via 2 flights of stairs may be a drawback, but overall a pleasant stay.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. However, there were some cooking smells present, the shower was not ideal, and parking was limited. The location was great with stunning views, but the dining experience was average. The facilities were well-maintained with lovely garden and sea views.
