The staff was very sweet and helpful. Loved that we had a huge balcony that faced the sea. Breakfast was nice but very simple.
Charged us to take coffee to our room which seemed unfair since it was "free breakfast". Beds were not so comfortable and they need more mirrors and plugs for a room that sleeps 4-6. Property a bit run down.

Slitet och väldigt enkelt hotell
Brukar inte gnälla, men detta är ett väldigt enkelt och slitet hotell. Vår familj med två vuxna och två barn fick ett litet och lyhört rum med en dubbelsäng och en bäddsoffa. Endast en hylla i garderoben för hela familjen samt trasigt lås till balkongen. Balkongen var delad med skärmvägg med gästerna intill.
Positivt var att hotellet hade pool att restaurangen var trevlig och att det var nära till stranden.

Wonderful family hotel, every detail is made with love. Next to an old church, the view from our hotel room was amazing. The restaurant has fresh sea food and you can order a special menu, where they drive with little boats through the restaurant, the food is on them. Beautiful wooden handmade boats, the waiter then wears a captains outfit. The pool is filled with plastic toys to use and the beach is just right over the street. I only didn’t liked the loud music they were already playing in the morning. The staff is super friendly and you feel like you are living with an Italian family.
