This hotel is only a few hundred meters from the pier. It's convenient. i stayed in the eden room, clean, friendly, and spacious. it included a proper coffee machine and a personal garden with a hot tub. breakfast was a tasty and filling assortment. they offered room service.
the rooms were small. the shower and toilet were even smaller! carpets and furnishings were shabby and dated. one small bottle of water was provided for the double room, which i found insufficient.
