Pleasant stay
We were warmly welcomed on arrival and shown to our room. Personally the bath in the bedroom was not to our taste and would have preferred two chairs to admire the sea view. The wet room was small and made everywhere dripping after using the shower and had to dry areas to use the toilet. The room was well equipped. Breakfast and service were excellent. The hotel was conveniently situated with bus stops outside as we arrived by public transport.
