Acceptable Stay

great location sea view comfy bed slow service rude waiter late food
The location offered a great view of the sea. I saw the sea upon waking in the morning. The bed provided comfort and I found many big towels.
I waited nearly 45 minutes for my food. A table who arrived later received their food before me. The waiter was rude when I mentioned this.

cute staff harbour view good selection
the staff was lovely and cute! i got parked right outside. the room had a view over the harbour. dinner included warm bread and olives, good wines, and good food at a table by the window! the continental breakfast offered boiled eggs, cooked salmon, cheese, croissants, and rowies.
the rooms and corridors felt tired, needing some fresh paint and brightening. the stairs leading to the rooms felt grubby and sticky.
