the location is perfect, right next to the fishermen's bastion. i appreciated the bonus bottle of wine, it was perfect for our special anniversary. the restaurant has delicious dishes, including pizza for children.
room temperature was set to a fixed 20 deg c value. a sign said this was due to economical reasons. an electric heater was provided, but this was disappointing for a four-star hotel.

The location was GREAT, near the bus stop and easy to reach. The room itself was a standard double room. The breakfast options were quite good. I found several things I enjoyed.
The room temperature was set to a fixed value, a little annoying. I found this quite disappointing. the restaurant was a bit EXPENSIVE for the quality of the food.

The staff was polite and professional. The breakfast offered an excellent selection. The location is Very nice. It is close to many attractions.
I experienced an issue. The room temperature remained at a fixed 20 degrees, BECAUSE of economical reasons. An electric heater was provided. It was embarrassing for a four star hotel.

The hotel was easy to find, i thought, and the parking was convenient. That much is true.
The room was a bit warm for my liking! the thermostat seemed to be set at a fixed temperature. Apparently, this was for "economical reasons," which, okay. they did provide a small electric heater! but honestly, it felt a bit cheap for a place like this. Felt more like a budget motel.
