Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a cozy and charming atmosphere, reminiscent of European rooms, with twin beds that felt a bit tight but clean. The small bathroom was functional, although smaller than expected from the website photos. Despite being on the ground level, our lower-priced room provided a decent stay.
The hotel was small but so lovely and clean and comfortable, with a view of the sea out the bay window. The rooms had too much exposure to street noise, but on the upside, the big beautiful and comfortable bed made up for it. The service went above and beyond, although some discussions over additional rates for certain groups were overheard. The location was perfect for exploring the town and enjoying the beautiful views. The dining experience was relaxing and delicious, offering a good variety of dishes. Overall, a peaceful and quiet stay, with some great highlights but also minor inconveniences.

The hotel has a charming old-world vibe and is ideal for exploring the town and nearby beaches. The rooms, while reminiscent of old western style, are starting to show some wear. The friendly service and cozy fireplace create a welcoming atmosphere, but the dining options, although tasty, are somewhat limited.
