While the staff were very friendly the hotel was very limited insofar as amenities. The room was not well prepared with bathroom plumbing requiring emergency repair to render it safe. Even with that repair it was a very ‘rustic’ room with little comfort. The most difficult aspect of the hotel was the 90 stairs that had to be climbed to access the room! This was not for the faint of heart and should be highlighted in the description.

The appartment was quite OK, but the bathroom really needs renovation. The shower space very small and the curtain doesn't help - the water always goes on the floor. However, we had a nice balcony with a nice view to the sea and the swimming pool.

Ok til prisen

Ok lejlighed. Receptionen var ikke altid bemandet tiltrods for at de skriver det. Rengøring var slet ikke optimal og mangelfuld. Der mest positive og fantastiske var ægteparret som ejer café/ spisestedet. Rigtig god mad og exceptionel god service
