My stay was a bit of a mixed bag. The hotel has a very convenient location, just a short walk from the harbor and town, but the rooms were not as nice as I expected based on the images online. The service was friendly and accommodating, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the dining area had a few flies and the breakfast options were lacking, which was disappointing.

My stay at this hotel was quite the experience. While the location was very convenient for accessing local attractions and dining, the issues with the room made my stay less enjoyable. The service from the staff was a highlight, as they were friendly and attentive. However, the condition of the room was a significant downside that I can't overlook.

I had a lovely stay overall at the hotel, which is conveniently located close to the city center and the seaside. The staff were incredibly friendly and made my stay comfortable. However, the room I got was in the basement and had some water leakage issues that weren't resolved. Despite a few hiccups, the hotel is a good option for those seeking value for money.

The staff was friendly and tried to be helpful, but my overall stay was marred by the bugs in the room. It's unfortunate because the facilities did have potential, but I couldn't enjoy anything with the distractions I faced. I ended up leaving early and won't be returning.

The staff were friendly and accommodating, which added to the enjoyable atmosphere. However, the dining situation could use some improvement, particularly in the breakfast options offered.
