Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a convenient location with easy access to bars and restaurants, providing a great view. The rooms are large, clean, and comfortable with all necessary toiletries, making the stay enjoyable. However, the dining experience, particularly the bacon and eggs, could be improved, offering better value for money.
The hotel offers spacious, clean, and comfy rooms with a lovely deck or patio and a cozy bed, making it a perfect stay. The service is exceptional, providing convenient room service, dry cleaning, and housekeeping. The location is excellent, surrounded by cafes and restaurants, ideal for a relaxing getaway. However, some might find the rooms too close to the toilets, risking toe bumps. The dining experience is mediocre, with slightly overcooked dishes, and separate costs for each item add up quickly. Despite these drawbacks, the friendly staff and fantastic location make this hotel a comfortable and enjoyable choice.
