We would stay there again.
Pros:

Really friendly owners and staff. Welcoming and accommodating. A great location close to the beach and the shops. We were lucky to get a great view from our room looking out over Towan Bay. There wasn’t enough parking at the hotel or street outside but public parking was reasonably priced and very close by. And a really good breakfast.

Cons:

We were only there a couple of nights so have nothing to complain about. We went during the heatwave so if there was air con that would have been the cherry on top.

Piacevole
Pros:

In pieno centro difronte a una spiaggia fantastica.

Cons:

Le camere sono ai piani superiori, senza ascensore e ci si accedere tramite una scala ripida. Un po’ scomodo se si hanno valige grandi.
