“What it might lack in modern polish, this place counters with a welcoming spirit and a genuine connection to the island's heritage; the general manager freely shares his deep knowledge of local history and culture. You'll find simple comforts here, like a comfortable bed and coffee each morning, alongside unexpected charm in the form of roaming chickens and a friendly hotel cat. For those seeking an authentic experience over typical luxury, this could be a good option.”
