Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located in a small establishment without staff, close to restaurants on the high street. The rooms feature a great bathroom with beautifully laid tables, providing a comfortable stay.
The hotel is in a wonderful location, down to the island and near to everything. The rooms are beautifully laid out with great bathrooms, offering a comfortable stay. The service is friendly and efficient, with excellent housekeeping. The dining experience is delightful with traditional fish dishes. However, being in a small establishment without staff can be a downside, even though the facilities are well-kept.
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.
