Pros:

The room was modern and kept well. The bed was very comfortable and room was standard size.

Cons:

The hotel is very dated. Old carpet in most places and some new carpet joins the old carpet and looks like something from years ago. We got lucky with our room as we had relations staying in the same hotel and the rooms were very small, carpet lifting up, very old furniture and all together I wouldn't have stayed there if I had gotten their room. They made a complaint and moved to the sea view room which was required for anyone for anyone to stay there.

Sehr zu empfehlen, würde ich so wieder buchen
Pros:

Die Lage ist einzigartig. 🥹
Ein netter kleiner Ort mit bunten Häusern, direkt am Meer. Es ist ein altes Hotel, sehr gut auf den neusten Stand gebracht. Man sieht dass man sich hier Mühe gibt. 👍 Zimmer top, sehr groß und gut und modern ausgestattet. Es fehlte an nichts. Personal superfreundlich und Frühstück top 👍

Cons:

Bad etwas klein, aber ist halt ein altes Haus
