Clean and spacious room. Convenient parking and close to town center, harbor, and beach. Delicious breakfast and friendly staff.
Nothing negative to mention.
The hotel was incredibly clean with excellent facilities. Parking was provided, making transportation convenient. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach, the harbor, and the center of this charming town. The breakfast options were outstanding, with a wide variety of choices and daily specials. The staff were friendly and pleasant, making my stay enjoyable.
