The hotel was convenient to walk to the port terminal. The hotel room was clean and staff were very friendly. It was very unexpected that the hotel room floor was on a significant slant. Just based on this, I am not sure that I would stay at this property again.

Good hotel but no AC or elevator

This hotel worked for our short 3 day stay. The staff was great and very friendly. The room was in good shape and as described. I filtered my hotel search to include AC so beware it doesn’t have AC or a working elevator. The front desk and owner told us it was getting fixed the next day after we checked. It was not so FYI. We didn’t take advantage of that in house breakfast. We just went to the bakery across the street. I wound close by saying this is a good hotel not great.

My room 66 was at the top of 3/4 flights of stairs, the lift was only used for luggage. The room was hot,only a fan and small window.The weather was usually hot on 17 jul ,but due to roof gully no wind blows into room .If air con is your thing dont stay here..the shower had mildew stains around the join to the wall ,and could do with a chemical treatment. The owner said he was renovating, but this could be done now.Breakfast was well cooked, excellent bacon, No fresh bread rolls or fruit or cheese, only sliced bread for toast.For £120 a night I expected better. The reception lady was welcoming and helpful. The hotel is in a good central position for visiting the town and has an old world charm which was lovely. I would stay again but in a renovated room with air con or on a winter break

The beds were really uncomfortable, we barely slept. The location is great, the staff is helpful, the breakfast is good, maybe we had the wrong bedroom with uncomfortable beds.
