At a glance

The nearest beach is about 6 minutes on foot, with a climb of about 24 m on the way back.

You have a bus stop about 1 minute away and a supermarket about 4 minutes away, so it works without a car.

There are few bars nearby, so evenings should be quiet.

How we worked this out

These figures are computed, not measured on foot. Walking times use the mapped streets and paths at about 4.8 km/h, with steps counted slower. Driving times use typical road speeds plus time for junctions and parking, so allow extra at busy times. The slope compares the height of the hotel with the nearest beach. "Steep" means an average of 8% or more. Noise counts mapped bars, pubs and nightclubs in a straight line.
