The hotel was exceptional and fairly clean, had absolutely breathtaking views of the sea. Cheese and coffee at the restaurant were good. The property had a very central location, near a main street and a tower. There was a harbour and the bay near the place. Thoroughly enjoyed that it was near a bus stop.
