I had a fantastic experience at the hotel, as the staff was not only friendly and courteous but also very helpful; they even allowed me to check in early. The location is perfect, right next to the harbor and at the end of the shopping street, making it easy to explore the area. I enjoyed a delicious breakfast with a variety of options, and the cleanliness of my spacious room created a comfortable atmosphere for relaxation.
