adequate stay with some drawbacks

poor insulation late breakfast
the room was a decent size (i had a 'beautiful double room sea view').
I found the noise insulation in the room to be quite poor. i could hear every footstep in the other rooms, disruptive (especially at night). also, breakfast was only served from 10 am. This was too late for me, so i skipped it.

Decent Stay with Some Drawbacks

soft mattress breakfast availability
The room was generally clean, but I found the mattress to be excessively soft. It creaked with every movement, impacting my sleep quality. Finding accurate information about breakfast availability proved difficult. I found conflicting information on different platforms (Trip Advisor, Google), with breakfast not included despite what I'd seen elsewhere. A cooked breakfast only started at 10:00 AM (too late for me).

i stayed in the dangerpoint room. it had lovely furnishings and decor. the room offered a great harbor view with the sound of the sea. i especially appreciated the complimentary bottles of water, tea, coffee, shortbread, and mints.
during my stay i noticed sounds of machinery at night. i found it somewhat disturbing. breakfast at the restaurant only started at 10h.
