I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, just by the sea with easy access to great dining options. The rooms were spotlessly clean and cozy, and the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The only downside was the slightly limited dining choices, but overall, a fantastic experience.
