“Good value for money for a short stay”
The room was a basic double room with a decent bed, good shower and good wifi. The breakfast was basic but adequate (bread roll, jam and butter, pancakes, coffee, juice, an apple). Friendly staff, easy check-in, clean facilities. All in all very good value for money.

Everything was perfect. We had a ferry in the morning and they packed our breakfast the night before. That was very good

“Good value for money, I would reccomend!”
Lady at the reception was very nice and she prepared fruit bowl for us while we were waiting for the room. Location is also good, near the city center and ferry terminal, walking distance. Towels and sheets were clean. Breakfast was also good and local.

Sonia and her staff have been really friendly and helpful with everything! Location is really quiet and you can walk around without worries. 10 min to the beach and 15 min to the center on foot I had the little apartment and it got cleaned every day, they change towels and sheets on a regular base. Breakfast is prepared freshly It's true there's just a fan and no AC,but when. you open all windows and balcony doors before sleeping,it's OK with the temperature would definitely come back, muito obg!!
