a romantic harbour stay

convenient location meticulous attention
the location proved convenient, a short walk from both shops and restaurants. the team offered welcome drinks immediately upon arrival. the room was clean, with meticulous attention to detail (it was a wonderful touch).
the ac controls required assistance from the staff to operate correctly. the ac had to be reset each time i left the room. this made it difficult to maintain a consistently comfortable temperature.
Dining

the breakfast had a smooth service and variety available, with fresh, local specialties. i was impressed by the quality of the restaurant's food. the setting in the courtyard was beautiful.
Service

the staff members were very great to our needs throughout our stay. they were eager to assist with local recommendations. even something simple (like remembering my breakfast drink) was so thoughtful.
