Location is convenient

The room was large and clean. Our vacation consisted of staying in 5 different hotels and this was the only hotel that did not supply any complimentary water. There was also no coffee pot or refrigerator which is fine since it was not advertised. What they do advertise is Wifi which is so spotty almost none existent. We stayed here four nights. This hotel was the only one in the area with wifi issues. Local restaurants, ferries, coffee shops, etc had no wifi issues. When it was brought to their attention there was no response. Location is 4 minutes from the pier and 15 minutes from the Charles Darwin center.

The place is very good and the people there make you feel like you are at home. There is only one thing I wish they could improve and it was the Wi-Fi connection in the bedroom.
