The great country and the great weather were Lichblicke of our vacation-not the hotel!

The hotel was mostly visited by Englishmen. the food, especially the breakfast is coordinated. good evening dance music in the lobby. no parking for cars in front of the hotel, but in about 300 meters away on the outskirts of town. their own cars. hotel offers unique and excellent location on the beach and in the old town.

A good basic Hotel in an excellent location. panel in consideration of British guests one could have this hotel also doubles as an "location idyllic and peaceful,"". sadly there were always misunderstandings between the British and eurotouristen, but no reason this hotel would not recommend this hotel to others.
We love the British and all attitudes only at self-contained singing opinions vary.
We like English people and their way of life, but singing in the early in the morning. Opionion different we get there" Read more
