Charming Stay by the Water

The gym offered modern equipment. I saw several treadmills and weight machines. Our room was bright, airy, and also spotlessly clean. Large windows provided views of the harbour.. I found the breakfast menu extensive and high quality. The porridge was especially notable.
Parking was limited. On-site spaces were hard to secure with luggage.
