Heerlijk rustig verblijf niet ver van strand en centrum
Pros:

Vriendelijke familie die zeer behulpzaam was bij wat we wilde gaan doen. Heerlijk heel uitgebreid ontbijt. Prima kamer en mooie douche / badkamer. Kwartiertje lopen naar het strand. Heel gezellig plaatsje met veel winkels en eettentjes

Cons:

Ik vond het matras erg hard, mijn man had er geen last van.

Amazing hotel and the owners are great
Pros:

We loved this hotel and the staff are so friendly and helpful. They are doing everything to make your stay great. The room was very clean and fresch, it is newly renovated and everything works great with AC, hot water, wifi, laundry service, etc. Also, the view from our room was great, we had a room facing a garden and it is completely calm.

Cons:

The only negative thing might be that it is a short walk (10 min) to the beach. But that is completely fine since the hotel is worth staying at.

Rekommenderar starkt!
Pros:

Vi gillade att det var rent och fräscht. Fräscht badrum med bra dusch. Vattenkokare och kylskåp på rummet var ett plus. Sköna sängar och kuddar. Värdarna var väldigt vänliga och hjälpsamma.

Cons:

Nej det finns inget vi inte gillade med boendet.
