The hotel is situated in a perfect small Cornish harbor by the sea, offering a great view and being close to everything. The rooms are really clean with a shower, though having a proper shower-head would be even better. The service is top-notch, with friendly staff always ready to assist. The dining experience, especially for tapas, is delightful. Despite some minor room nuances and the value for money, the overall stay was pleasant and worth it.
The hotel offers stunning views and the air conditioning in the rooms is a bonus. The location, although near the sea, makes up for any minor shortcomings. The dining experience was enjoyable, with a mix of local and international dishes. The facilities are top-notch, providing all the necessary conveniences for a pleasant stay.
