The staff provided such a warm welcome. It felt genuinely personal. our room was stylish and very comfortable, a true gem at an excellent price. we enjoyed the good dining room and the bar, especially the wonderful food and drink choices. its location near the beach and convenient off-road parking added to the ease of our stay.

a good surprise!
larger roomsuperb breakfastfriendly staff
we found this hotel when searching for accommodation near a friend, and it was so great! upon arrival before check-in, we received an upgrade to a considerably larger room (so exciting!). the placement of mirrors, lights, and sockets clearly considered guest needs, and everything felt so fresh. the early dinner was great and breakfast (pancakes with bacon and syrup? amazing!) was superb.
i noticed the water pressure in the shower wasn't very strong, just a little trickle.
