shared bathroom long queue
the breakfast included was very nice!!!
One major issue was the shared bathroom facilities. This setup felt quite inconvenient. i experienced long queues for both the toilet and shower, as several rooms shared these amenities. the lack of privacy was not ideal either, especially after showering, walking back to my room while passing other guests.

excellent coastal stay
fresh breakfast wi-fi coverage
The cooked breakfast was hot and freshly prepared. i easily obtained extra toiletries and tea bags. They were available without any trouble. the wi-fi coverage was excellent, and i found check-in simple. i could see, hear, and even smell the sea from my room.
my room overlooked a communal toilet, and i was occasionally disturbed by other guests using it during the night. this was not pleasant. perhaps relocating rooms would be useful.
Location

great location tasty breakfast
The location was great. It was very close to the sea and the castle. I found the breakfast to be very good and well prepared. They cleaned windows at my request. The hotel was clean.
The stairs to the rooms were poorly lit, so one must be careful when carrying luggage.
