A good town hotel

A very clean town hotel, overlooking other hotel rooms as we had a room at the back (20) A good shower and comfy bed. The staff were very friendly, at reception and at breakfast. The breakfast was plentiful. Definitely recommend. We only stayed 1 night, if were were there longer a room on the front would have been better.

This is a lovely hotel. Perfect for a stop-over for the port or airport. The staff were welcoming & friendly, the bed was comfy & the room was clean, with a nice view from the small balcony. The breakfast was delicious. Great value for money, too. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.

Hotel is in an excellent location close to restaurants, bars, shops, the old town and port. It’s a little dated and in need of some modernisation. Rooms are small and bathroom tiny but spotlessly clean and perfectly functional. Rooms are serviced every day with fresh towels and plenty of liquid soap and body wash provided. 24 hour reception with friendly helpful staff.

Would consider staying again

Staff friendly and helpful. Only 10 minute walk to harbour. Bed and bathroom clean and comfortable, but room smelt a bit fusty and floor was gritty/dusty. No lift, so had to carry case up two floors. Suited us for a cheap one night stay before catching ferry and night before flight. Overall, hotel was in need of updating.
