The location is great as it is on the sea front. Breakfast offered a delicious cooked menu and I had Eggs Florentine. The staff were friendly and kind.
The room was small with not much space to open a suitcase. Moving around was impossible. I think I was disappointed considering the price.

underwhelming stay

the hotel's location was acceptable it was near shops.
the bedroom reminded me of a small box. i couldn't open the window because of the smell from the extractor fan outlet, a constant noise was present. sleeping was difficult, and the room was not somewhere to spend time.
