The hotel is a gem for those looking for cozy accommodation near the charming high street restaurants and the serene seafront. The rooms are beautifully laid out with great bathrooms, yet the lack of staff presence is noticeable. The service is impeccable, especially with attentive housekeeping. However, the absence of staff may not suit all travelers. Dining offers delicious Bernese sausages, but other options may be desired. A small establishment that caters well to guest needs.
