an wonderful stay

generous sizewall tvsea viewfriendly staff
I really enjoyed my generous-sized room, complete with a wall tv and comfy double bed. the sea view was an added bonus i certainly appreciated. the staff were very friendly and helpful. everything about the room was just what i needed!!!
the smaller of the two windows had a handle. it clashed with the wall, so i couldn't fully close the window.
