The room was fairly spacious (i appreciated that). I noticed it definitely needs some refreshing. When I pulled the curtain aside, it could not be properly closed again. I found this quite inconvenient.

the hotel boasts a great location near the marina. any boat trips are easily accessible from here. many souvenir shops are close by, also restaurants are a short walk away.
Initially i booked three nights. I went to front desk to extend the stay on day 2, but there was a problem. when i returned to the room at 1:00 pm, i was asked why my possessions were still in the room. i explained that i had extended my stay, but the reply was an emphatic no. I did not.
