Felt welcome but the room was disappointing.
Pros:

Super Friendly Staff and location. Breakfast was fine and bar area looked good.

Cons:

Decor and quality of room was disappointing given the price. We had stayed at a nearby hotel a few days earlier which was significantly nicer and a bit cheaper.

Pros:

Very friendly and welcoming staff. Stayed with a dog and was given a room in the annex (behind main building). This proved very convenient since I had the dog, it was easy to take him out for walks without disturbing other guests or walking up and down flights of stairs. Food was good and was accommodated in the bar/lounge area with the dog. Very central location, easy walk from rail station and close to beach and cafe's.

Pros:

Gute zentrale Lage.
Das Personal war sehr freundlich Tausch Bilder

Cons:

Haben ein Zimmer im Hinterhof gehabt das schon in die Jahre gekommen war.
Wer auf Duschvorhänge steht.....

Buffet war abgeräumt von der Reisegruppe und wir mussten auch sehr lange auf ein mäßiges Frühstück warten.

Bit of a hiccup at first but it got better
Pros:

This review is for the restaurant within the hotel. We booked the day previous for dinner at 1915hrs. We arrived about an hour early and told them we had a reservation, which they confirmed. We were content to sit in the bar/lounge area until the booked time and they told us to have a seat until our table was ready. We were provided with menus to peruse while waiting, which was fine. After about 20 minutes, two wait staff came to take our order. When we said we would wait until we had our table, we were told we were actually going to be eating where we were seated, as they were fully booked with guests on a coach tour. We were not content with this, as our seats in the lounge were low and it would have been uncomfortable to eat a meal there. After having a bit of a back and forth, suddenly they provided us with a proper table. From there on, we thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience. We had vegetarian samosas as starters, slow cooked beef with mashed potatoes and grilled hake with roasted vegetables. It was all piping hot and well-prepared. An excellent meal.

Pros:

Ottima posizione. Letti comodi e camere confortevoli con bagno con doccia in vasca. Colazione Ottima. In camera c'è un cartellino per richiedere le pulizie. Parcheggio in cortile. I pavimenti sono in legno e nonostante la moquette scricchiolano.
