i enjoyed that the breakfast offered a good variety of foods and drinks, it was a lovely touch. The bed was comfortable after long walks. i also liked that it was not far from the seafront.
the shower had hairs in the tray, which wasnt ideal. i did feel the rooms need a good clean, that would improve it greatly.

The breakfast was delicious. The service seemed attentive and I liked it a lot. I also appreciate that they gave excellent value for the price. The location work good for me, it was warm and I find it cute.
The bed isn't so comfortable. I feel like the mattress need to be looked at. I feel lumps and springs during the night. I did not get a decent night sleep. The room also has a unpleasant smell when I first enter.
