"Reception was well handled. Room was fine. Comfortable bed. Good shower. Adequate room for clothes. Large and airy room. Location very good. Restaurants in large numbers and access to historical sites and the port. Only large problem was the breakfast. This needs a thorough review. The staff were overwhelmed and overworked. Resources ran out and eg bowls not replaced promptly. Too many customers at once? Mind you the customers were not helpful. Maybe start to charge for breakfast to limit numbers? Or find some way of regulating in flow? Overall good value for money."
