Older style three storey house had appeal. Carrying bags up three flights of stairs to room on third floor lost that appeal. Small room - overpriced - value for money spent. Was able to get a 5 star hotel in Dartmouth for the same price. Price gouging in a tourist area always turns me off. Pigeons cooing on roof during the night was an annoyance. overall the room was very clean.
