The hotel offers stunning views from higher level rooms with balcony access. The service was exceptional, especially with the helpful male staff in the morning assisting with requests. The location is prime, just across from the main patrolled beach. The dining experience, although limited to muffins, was a nice touch. The facilities provided a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were cozy, and the veranda with a small bathroom had big pictures showcasing a great view. The staff went above and beyond to help with any requests, especially the male staff member in the morning. The location is unbeatable, perched on a hilltop with a stunning view of the town beach. The dining experience was delightful with included Bernese Fries. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.

The hotel offers spectacular views with louvered windows and impeccable service. The location is conveniently close to everything, making it a great choice for a stay. However, the dining options could be more varied, and the price for some services may not offer the best value for money.
