    The place was really close to the centre of the city, and on the sea. It was really nice to wake up on water, watching the birds. The lady who made us breakfast was really sweet, breakfast itself was quite good, and we could leave our luggage...

    Tommy´s Breakfirst saved my live multiple times. I recommend to ask for the "Tommy Special". I was very suprised by the comfy and familiar vibe they are able to create on the boat.
