Wonderful Stay, Great Location!

fantastic locationlovely chairfilling breakfastright amount
The location was fantastic, it was very easy to return to the hotel. I could drop off shopping bags before meals or walks around the harbour. I enjoyed relaxing in the room. I had a lovely chair by a big window. Breakfast was also tasty and filling. I found it was just right.
My small room felt a little cold, only a minor issue.
Location
10/10
The hotel is interestingly situated right next to the mediaeval town wall, which I found so charming. Its proximity to the castle is excellent, only a few minutes walking. There are great restaurants nearby too. That was a plus.
