Wonderful Stay!
bus stops train station main street
The hotel location is near bus stops. It is also near the train station. The walk to the main street is a straight line. I got useful information about the island when I checked in.
The bed was very uncomfortable and overall the room was disappointing. It was not particularly clean and just missing some little touches.
