Pretty much what I expected: substantial hotel, reasonably priced. Lots of bangers, fruit, boiled eggs, pastries and cheese at breakfast. Marvellous view, a nice balcony, great bed, too. Swimming pool was excellent too. Besides, parking was available nearby. Walking distance to the magnificent beach.
