I had a delightful stay at the hotel, where cleanliness was top-notch, and the staff were exceptionally welcoming. The location was perfect, as it was just a two-minute stroll to the sea front and a short walk to the main town center. Breakfast was a highlight, featuring delicious cooked options and homemade treats like fruit cake. Plus, the free parking right outside was a massive bonus.
