The hotel boasts a fantastic location! i found excellent pubs, various shops, and amazing walks right outside. the breakfast included tasty dishes, prepared fresh to order, with lots of options available. staff members were helpful. When i needed a different pillow, the room attendant quickly delivered it.
the room was a bit warm and could have used air conditioning. however, opening a window solved this slight issue.
