I recommend looking elsewhere

The hotel rooms seem hacked together and retrofitted, the floor doesn’t meet correctly in places, the blinds don’t cover the windows and were stained, the door was paper thin. The bathroom had an awkward glass window with the room, only having blinds that were mostly transparent, removing any privacy you may have wanted The breakfast was laughably a carton of milk and juice, a cereal bar and a sachet for coffee. The single member of staff seemingly on duty made us a toastie, so at least didn’t go hungry. The shower head was rusty and there were hairs on the bed. All of this at quite a high price point. We were very glad to leave this place.

Hyggeligt hotel med masser af charme.

Hotellet er bedre end stjernene angiver. Et rigtig hyggeligt lille hotel tæt på strandpromenaden med masser af restauranter etc. Morgenmad serveres på værelset. God service.
Set udefra.

En general, bien. El personal muy amable. El desayuno era poco abundante (sólo dos rebanadas de pan de molde). El tabique entre la pieza y otra permitía oír el rumor de la conversación de los pasajeros de la otra pieza.

Es un hitel muy bonito , pero tiene muchos detalles que se deberian mejorar, sobre todo por lo que se cobra. Es muy limpio. No tiene nada para servirse, lo que es complicado cuando se llega a un lugar como bahia inglesa que todo cierra despues de una hora.
