The view was stunning and it is in a perfect location. The staff were very helpful and ensured that we had late night access as our arrival was delayed by 6 hours due to a problem with the ferry. The property had everything we needed for our short self-catering stay. We are happy to recommend this property.

Stayed in the budget studio suite and it was just fine. Parked easily on the street below, with no issues. Upholstery on sofa bed was shot, but other than that, all good

People were genuinely friendly and very honest. We had a small,issue with a double payment and they were straight onto it to sort it out for us. Really appreciated their support. Beautiful clean and tidy rooms with wonderful views over the Marina. Parking is somewhat restrictive for larger vehicles though. They do their best to give you a spot to fit your vehicle. Great stay and close to everything.
