Habitaciones cómodas y limpias
Pros:

Muy buena ubicación, al lado del puerto. La habitación estaba limpia. Personalmente, disfruté de que el baño fuera muy amplio, cómodo, con dos lavabos y una ducha enorme con muy buena presión.
Se puede alquilar las bicicletas en el hotel directamente, de buena calidad.

Cons:

Sabemos que no es su culpa, pero hay olor en la entrada de una granja de vacas cercana. El desayuno estaba bien, pero podría haber sido mejor, ofrecen café, zumo, fruta y huevos cocinados de diferentes maneras.

Pros:

Very close to the jetty and convenience of getting the bikes at the same place.

Cons:

The lady at the reception who was on the phone was not welcoming, same as the bike person that took the bike back from us.

Good choice for a short stay, great location
Pros:

Great location, close to the port and center with restaurants, there is also a market right next to the villa. Breakfast was very good.

Cons:

We had to leave at 7 because of the ferry so we couldn’t stay for breakfast which started at 8 and I asked if we could get something to go. They sad they will prepare something and bring it to us but they never did.

Enjoyable Stay
Pros:

We stayed in one of the rooms in front of the reception area. It was clean, spacious and comfortable.

The breakfast was good, with toast, eggs cooked to your liking, fresh fruit, tea and coffee. The villa also offers bicycle rentals at reasonable prices, including both electric and non-electric bikes.

Gehan was incredibly friendly and helpful. He was always happy to assist whenever we needed anything or simply have a chat, which made our stay even more enjoyable.

Very good overall stay, would stay there again
Pros:

Very good value for money, stayed 4 people in a family room. Great location. Easy enough walk from the port, even with some luggage (turn right from the port and then left after a 100 meters or so). Room is a good size, beds are comfy, aircon worked well, nice little verandah with 4 chairs and a table. Could do with an extra blanket and pillow per person. The sheet alone is too cold. Only a small fridge and a few glasses and cups, so not really self-catering. Bike rental at the property (good quality bikes) or just across the road for cheaper for lesser quality bikes). Breakfast was delicious, and more than enough. Served on the lovely verandah by nice friendly staff.

Cons:

No real kitchen facility. Too few covers for sleeping
