I couldn't have asked for a better hotel location, right by the sea with stunning views and a short walk to various areas on the hillside. The rooms were cozy and came with a lovely terrace where I could enjoy the excellent view, but the room service was a bit constrained by some unnecessary rules set by the management. The service was top-notch, always professional and polite, ready to assist with any request. The dining experience, although with beautiful views, could have had more variety in the menu. The facilities were fantastic overall, making my stay truly enjoyable.
