Very nice Experience!
spacious room local attractions
Michael and Karen welcomed us with open arms! The King Room Sea View was amazing. It was super clean and very spacious. Karen's breakfast was delicious! Michael even gave us tips on local attractions. The hotel was also beautifully decorated and meticulously maintained, which I loved.
The pillows were a bit too soft for my liking. I prefer a firmer pillow for better support. It's a small detail, but it did affect my sleep quality just a little.

Breakfast included a good variety of fresh fruit. Plus the cooked options were prepared with great care, like eggs cooked to perfection and crispy bacon served hot! The dining area was bright and cute.

the breakfast was delicious, and there were many options. the location was convenient to the train station, it was just a short walk.
