I stayed in the english room and it was a treat. i loved the lovely arched windows that gave me a perfect view of the harbour. the sofa was a great addition. I could sit and watch people go by (i enjoyed that a lot!).
The night storage heaters didn't give off much heat. It was a bit chilly in february.

The location offered very nice views overlooking the sea. It felt so romantic. breakfast was simple, though wonderful, and the staff were great too. i remember this nice stay and will try to return to the area as it is beautiful. I cannot wait. i felt the charm of the place.
The room was a very small one and felt uncomfortably tiny! the bed also seemed a little small for two, an uncomfortable small bed. hygiene could definitely be better. Dust gathered on surfaces.

I was a little disappointed with a few things. First, the room was quite small. Second, the bed was uncomfortable. I also thought that the cleanliness could have been better. The staff were friendly enough, but these issues affected my experience, so I wouldn't rush back.
