Little hut where you can buy water, but at 3 euros a pop for a small plastic bottle, very expensive!! Easy Ubers ..."

A bit overpriced for what it is.
"A solo stay for short holiday - the hotel is nice, very clean, with friendly and helpful staff. Cons - It is a bit more expensive that other hotels that offer much the same, so it depends on personal preference. I prefer self catering so for me this it's unneccesarily costly, and I was shocked to ..."
