The place was spotless, I booked the premium double room with sea views, everything was very good. Every staff member was competent and excellent friendly. I booked a room with a comfortable bed, a kettle, a lounge area, and a safe. Right next to an art gallery and a fortress, overall the location was particularly good. Offered awesome and savoury breakfast. The whole experience was very nice.
