the hotel boasts a location on a cliff (a fine location). it offers dramatic seascape views with a seemingly endless horizon. the location also offers proximity to the center and the garden, convenient for exploring the area.

The breakfast was delicious, with a range of options. The beef bourguignon was lovely with mushrooms and mashed potatoes. The room was clean, and all staff were very helpful and professional. The hotel has a SEAFRONT location, close to many restaurants, about a 5-minute walk.
I noticed there was not a lot of milk available in the room.
