“I think this hotel strikes a balance with its location: set back from the busiest tourist areas yet still an easy walk to the sea and major attractions. The staff seems particularly attentive, creating a welcoming atmosphere. From what I gathered, the breakfast, served on a pleasant terrace, stands out for its variety and quality.”
