the hotel location is great i found! it's super close to everything i wanted to see. breakfast was also good. i was able to order coffee and eggs from the bar every day!
The shower had leaks. the bathroom ended up flooded, it was annoying. i also noticed that some of the plugs in the room were loose. That's not safe.

A Return Visit Delight

central location helpful staff lobster decoration
The location was indeed central. A short walk got me to the main square. The staff are helpful. They also arranged taxis quickly. The room was spotlessly clean. I liked the lobster decorations.
The room was small for the price. It was a basic four star. Hot water experienced an issue at one point.

fair stay at the accommodation

large shower shower nicely decorated room room friendly staff dated interior worn furniture mismatched curtains
the shower was large i found the room nicely decorated it felt comfortable. the staff was friendly dario gave me a different room as i did not like the first one. he offered help with storing my rental bikes this was kind. the location was great providing easy access to nearby attractions.
the room seemed a little dated to me it was like a cheap attempt at remodeling. the furniture was worn i noticed lamps and curtains that seemed mismatched. i think the hotel could benefit from updating some of the interior decor.
