    Steep stairs to go up. Toilet is a step up, looks like a throne (but not too convenient when sleepy).

    Great location and value for money! very nice rooftop to relax. Accommodations in the room Were basic were sufficient. Very friendly staff. Were able to find free parking at a public lot about 5 mins away, but machines are being installed and supposedly since this June this parking lot will no longer be free.

    It's an old building. Expect noise.. a lot of noise. Can hear people peeing through the wall. A bit too many emails beforehand, in my opinion.

    Very charming house with 1st class roof top. Everything was very clean and the kitchen has everything you need.

    During the night there was no electricity and the stairs and toilets were very dark.

    My room was so comfy and I slept so well. The kitchen facilities were great and the rooftop deck was outstanding with excellent views. Great for a early sunrise breakfast. Everything was very clean.

    Nothing comes to mind.

    The location right in town was excellent. The rooftop terrace was a wonderful place to observe sunset and sunrise, the town was very quiet at night. The kitchen was a welcome find to store snacks and beverages. Everything including restaurants, ferry boat and public parking were easily accessible.

    It had no disabled access and very steep marble stairs up to the reception area which were difficult to climb after a long day of exploring the islands.

    We really enjoyed the roof terrace and the panoramic views it had to offer.

    there was a tiny mirror in the bathroom, but no socket, so impossible to use a hairdryer/straightner there. The two mirrors in the bed room were placed so that you had to be at least 2 metres tall to use them.

    Centrally located, yet quiet, with a super roof terrace and a well equipped small kitchen. Comfy beds.

    The only thing missing were your own toilet. Rooms having their own shower but a sharing toilet. Not much of an inconvenience.
