a gem by the harbor

breakfast buffethelpful staffboat rentalstylish design
the breakfast buffet was amazing with a lot of choices, including sicilian pastries, it was such a treat. the reception staff was helpful and quickly sent a message when we left two jackets. boat rental operators right outside the hotel made it easy to explore the coast, so convenient! the dining area had a stylish design and felt very spacious.
The check-in process moved slowly. It could have been faster for a smoother arrival.
