Clean, comfortable and well located
Pros:

Breakfast was very fresh and served quickly. Location is perfect. Room was clean but a bit on small side. Not much storage space had to keep most of clothing in suitcase. But would still stay here again.

מושלם! גן עדן! A little piece of paradise
Pros:

המיקום חלומי! פיסת גן עדן! המלון פשוט נפלא, מעוצב בטוב טעם במיקום מדהים!!! נקי, מבריק ומצוחצח. ארוחת בוקר מדהימה והכל בסביבה שהיא פשוט גן עדן. למלון פאב פעיל אך הוא אינו פתוח עד השעות הקטנות של הלילה כך שהרעש לא הפריע. הצוות מדהים. כל כך נחמדים שאין מילים. מדובר במלון ובמקום שהייתי מגיעה אליו במיוחד.
The location is absolutely dreamy — a little piece of paradise! The hotel is simply wonderful, beautifully designed with great taste and set in a truly stunning location. Everything is spotlessly clean and impeccably maintained. The breakfast is excellent, and the surrounding scenery is nothing short of paradise.
The hotel has an active pub, but it does not stay open into the early hours of the morning, so noise was never an issue. The staff are amazing — incredibly kind, warm, and helpful. Words can hardly describe how lovely they are.
This is the kind of hotel and destination I would happily travel to specifically to visit again.

Cons:

אין כזה דבר. הכל היה מושלם.
