enjoyable stay near the beach

prime location delicious breakfast helpful staff
the hotel's location was advantageous, with access to the town center. the beach was also close. the breakfast was delicious, i especially liked the full english option, with generous portions and perfectly cooked ingredients. staff members were friendly and always ready to help.
the room did not have drinking water, which would have been beneficial given the price.

Charming Stay with Excellent Amenities

beautiful decoration delicious food comfortable seating
I was kinda surprised by the well decorated public areas. The breakfast restaurant was a lovely space offering varied and delicious food. The hotel has a comfortable seating area great for socializing or quietly reading. The swimming pool looked very clean, offering a relaxing option.
I found that my room was not the same as advertised. The space was smaller and did not have all the features. The bathroom felt dated, requiring some updates to match the advertised quality.
