“There's a certain appeal to this historic building by the sea, and I noticed that many rooms provide expansive views. I found the breakfast particularly impressive, from what I've gathered, with a spread that goes beyond the usual continental fare. It's clear that the hotel aims to accommodate both leisure and business needs, though some aspects require attention.”
