Was pretty good!
bay viewsuper clean roomquiet rampartsairport shuttle
The location provided wonderful views over the bay. My room was spotlessly clean and offered all necessary facilities. Situated in the ramparts, it felt private and quiet, PERFECT for a restful night. The shuttle service to and from the airport was also very helpful.
The kettle in my room had to be placed on the floor to plug in, then returned to the window area for use. This was a minor inconvenience.

The single room castle had a comfortable bed and provided ample space for one person. The room included blackout curtains, GREAT for ensuring a restful night's sleep. I also had a clear view of the sea from my window.

i stayed in a double room garden and it possessed a quaint charm. it offered a lovely vista of the grounds, even if a bit distant from the shoreline. the staff were quick to help, always present with a smile, i must say.
the minibar, while stocked, lacked a selection of local ales, what a pity.
