Photos need updating, the sofa is different, not a corner sofa as pictured, only 1 deck chair, and the tv is not a 54inch. Only 1 bowl in the cupboard, but on day 2 we realised that the dishwasher was full and not emptied from the previous person.

Boutique hotel which is more like an apartment. Well located near the town centre. Although self check in, it is easy to navigate with helpful staff via SMS instructions and phone call. Highly recommended.
