Very Central close to restaurants, shopping, Harbour and 15min walk to the train station. Enjoyed our stay. Good choice of hot and cold breakfast options. Originally we had booked two twin beds and needed extra bed for our son. They literally arranged the room with extra bed ready within 10 mins. Definitely will come back to this Hotel in the future.

Very centrally located amd walkable to all destinations! A little worn out but extremely clean with upgraded bathrooms and friendly staff. Breakfast was delicious as well. Even though the room was a little small (I thought I booked a bigger one for myself and my husband as my daughter was supposed to get smaller one) but very very bright what we were very happy about. I would definitely stay there again

Hotel is located in a central area next to the shopping. Breakfast was wonderful and staff was very accommodating. Beds were way below par, my living room sofa is more comfortable than the bed we slept in. The biggest drawback is the see thorough bathroom walls, it’s completely open glass separated area. We couldn’t take shower or bath with kids staying in the same room and every time I need to change I had to scram myself in a very tight toilet space which was the only private area. I can see how I could enjoy this space being just the two of us but it’s completely family unfriendly. If you are traveling as a couple it could be a great stay.
