Relaxed and comfortable stay y the water
Pros:

The recent renovation is such an improvement. Beautiful decor and well designed bathrooms made it a very pleasant stay.

Cons:

Car park is very dark at times once the sensor lighting goes off. The window of our town facing room could be cleaned for a better experience.
