    stunning views
    cozy vibe
    delicious breakfast
    street noise

    We had a fantastic time, especially enjoying the cozy vibe of our room and the stunning views of the harbour from the window. The hotel has a lovely seating area for relaxing with a drink and access to nearby beach spots for some fun in the sun. The only minor issue was a bit of noise from the street, but it didn't really bother us. Definitely recommend trying the breakfast – it was delicious! 😄

    parking situation

    We had a lovely stay and really enjoyed the spacious family room. The hearty breakfast was a total treat! The kids loved the nearby beach for some fun in the sand, and we appreciated the cozy bar area for some evening relaxation. Just a heads up, the parking situation can be a bit tricky, so plan accordingly. 🌊

    limited choices
    dated amenities
    no parking

    The staff were friendly. The superior double room offered a spacious layout with a lovely view of the harbor. Breakfast was a highlight, with excellent options like chocolate croissants. There was a noticeable lack of variety in dinner choices, and some amenities felt dated, which could use an upgrade. A pleasant experience worth returning to.

    harbour view
    central location
    parking issue

    The room offered a fine view of the harbour. The location sits smack in the heart of town.

    Parking can be a real headache due to its limited availability, especially during peak tourist seasons. Despite the reasonably-priced parking options, many are snatched up quickly, leaving you to scramble for alternatives. Breakfast lacked variety and warmth, with limited gluten-free choices-definitely worth noting if you have specific dietary needs. Lastly, the busy pub atmosphere might not suit those seeking a more peaceful retreat.
