Excellent Historical Stay

quiet locationnice restaurantgreat courtyardpoor lighting
I found the location very quiet. It was also near restaurants and bars. The sea bathing spot nearby was a great place . It allows to read books and relax. The courtyard gave a lot of atmosphere.
The room lacked lighting. There was no lighting in the bedroom ceiling, just a table lamp. The courtyard appears untidy and uninviting. The kitchenette inside the cupboard looks grubby.
Service

The valet service shines. It is a real bonus and removes the stress from parking a car somewhere. The staff was mostly friendly and cute.
