superb hotel experience

great locationfriendly stafflarge varietyhard mattress
the location is excellent near the sea. the staff were lovely and friendly. they helped at every moment. the breakfast was great and well-staffed. the quality was clean and well cooked with a large variety.
the bed mattress was not comfortable since it felt hard. rooms on the lower level were noisy because they faced the street. double-glass windows would reduce the street noise.
