Great stay
This was a wonderful stay, it's not really a hotel but more like a private home with bedrooms. My king size bedroom was on the 3rd floor with a balcony that you could see the harbor from, the room was very big & All the comforts of home. The breakfast in the morning was very good, typical English type. The staff was very friendly & helpful. I give it 5 stars.

This hotel has a terrific view of the ocean. The hotel has once been a 4-5 star hotel, but the new owner, is not keeping up this standard, which is a shame, as the staff is so nice and they are trying to do their best. The hotel needs some special care.

Ny ägare som inte riktigt förstår sig på hur Guest house fungerar. Personalen som följde med från tidigare ägare gör att det fungerar. De är mycket hjälpsamma Otrolig utsikt från den gemensamma terassen
