Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Breakfast is at a nearby café — Rather than an in-house spread, breakfast is served at a partnered café nearby using vouchers, which some guests may find less convenient.
  • Beach requires a short bus ride — While the old town is walkable, the beach is not directly adjacent and needs a short bus ride to reach.
  • Check-out is early — Check-out ends at 10:00, which may feel early for those wanting a leisurely morning.
  • Limited on-site parking — Parking is via a public car park and an off-site car park; there is no private on-site parking, though an EV charging station is available.
