a stay with some minor inconveniences
friendly ownerlocal informationgood breakfastmissing informationground floor roomlate night noise
the owners were very friendly. they provided local information about activities and amenities. the breakfast was good. it offered good value.
i found no guest information (like wifi details) in the room. my room was on the ground floor near the entrance. i heard noise from other guests late at night. (i think a back room would have been quieter).

adequate stay near the sea
friendly hostsgreat breakfastunavailable parkingadditional charge
the hosts were very friendly and provided helpful information about local attractions. breakfast was very good with plenty of options. i found this particularly useful as a solo traveler. the hotel's proximity to the sea was also quite convenient.
parking was unavailable upon my arrival, a slight inconvenience. i was also charged a bit more for my dog than the amount initially stated online. i found this discrepancy rather frustrating.
