This small, simple, modern hotel is set in a quiet little pedestrian street that’s a short walk from the beach near the New Town's northern tip. The crisp, clean, whitewashed rooms have kitchenettes and air-con, and each has its own flower-bedecked terrace or balcony. Yvonne, the helpful owner, provides her own hand-drawn local maps.
