Never again!
Pros:

Nothing expected the friendly girl at the reception!

Cons:

The Hotel is no go!
The room I booked was supposed to have a size of 28 sqm, but actually the room was not larger than 14sqm! The Hotel manager told us that the roomsize on booking.com is just a rough estimation and that he has never measured it! What a joke!
The rooms all have the same size he told us.
So long story short, don’t go there it’s not worth it!

Amazingly hospitable host!
Pros:

The owner and his staff were super helpful to us as we navigated one of the participants illness. They accommodated food requirement, showed us where to get the laundry done and kept our humor up. After our trip, they even arranged for one of our lost items to be returned to us.

Cons:

The rooms in the front do get a bit of road niose.

Pros:

The location was excellent. The beach was only a 5 minute walk behind the hotel. The staff were very friendly and very helpful. Having a view of the sea while using the dining room was very special. The food was excellent. We all really enjoyed our stay. I would definitely recommend and will be booking another stay soon.
