On arrival reception staff excellent. Stay was just ok but not happy with treatment by staff at breakfast.
Pros:

Good facilities, close enough to shops and port

Cons:

Swimming pool small, embarrassing situation when staff walked me back to reception to verify that we paid for breakfast. Felt Embarrassed and Very, Very Uncomfortable this is bad behaviour you better change that method.
