Amazing stay with amazing views!

fantastic views comfortable beds
The restaurant offered fantastic sea views! It was nice to park the car on-site. I didn't need to worry about finding a spot after check-in. The beds were comfortable, and I enjoyed both my evening meal and breakfast.
The walls seemed quite thin. A noisy group in the next room kept us awake one night. I would appreciate better sound insulation in the future.
