Oprimale Lage mit ausgezeichneter Anbindung an den öffentlichen Nahverkehr
Pros:

Die Lage zum Strand ist ausgezeichnet. Das Zimmer war sauber und hatte einen schönen Blick auf die Bucht. Das Frühstück konntw individuell gestaltet werden.

Cons:

Die Handtücher hätten öfter gewechselt werden sollen.

Ich würde nur nochmal hingehen, wenn es renoviert ist.
Pros:

Die Lage, die neu renovierten Zimmer

Cons:

Das alte Gebäude ist heruntergekommen, dementsprechend sieht es auch drinnen aus. Alt, schmutzig und schlecht ausgestattet.
Das Frühstücksbuffet entsprach mir nicht. Gummige Croissants, nicht ansprechend präsentiert.
