Great staff and location

Stayed one night in self catering apartment, spotlessly clean and all facilities you need for self catering are there. We arrived early and they did their best to get our apartment ready for us shortly after we arrived. The staff are more than helpful and very friendly. Great location, beautiful view from the balcony, 5 minute walk to the town but located on a hill so might not suit ppl with mobility issues.
