Too small and too noisy for comfort
Pros:

Breakfast was good, staff was friendly and competent, the room as well as the premises were clean.

Cons:

The room (number 2) was tiny. we were barely able to walk around the twin-size bed. Very little space to store your luggage and hang your clothes. The room has a dilapidated single glazed window facing the main road. Noisy wellm into the small hours as lots of traffic passing by.

Bene ma non benissimo
Pros:

Stile marittimo molto apprezzato, silenzioso per essere sulla strada e sopra un pub

Cons:

Camera non molto pulita, letto un po' pendente e non per colpa dei famosi pavimenti inglesi

Pros:

The staff were very friendly, food was very good and plenty of walks. Very good location.

Cons:

The room was very small and we had an extremely small corner shower that my husband couldn't use, not because of his size, at all. The shower was extremely tiny even for normal adult size. I also found it a struggle in the shower and I have a smaller frame size. The noise from the traffic was pretty bad, but we know that couldn't be helped. Despite all that we had a great stay, but perhaps a larger family sized room next time instead of a standard size.
