Not quite what we were expecting
welcoming hostess. Good views. Good breakfast. Room a bit run down. The photos of this B&B show the rooms in a much better condition than they really are.

Nice view, lovely pool and clean and appealing looking rooms. The hostess was kind but very energetic and eager to check up on you often. We felt a bit stressed by this and would have wished to be left on our selves.
The breakfast was really nice and the location is good. Also a huge plus is that you get a parking spot at the hotel.
