Great stay as front desk were very nice. Room was extremely clean. Bed was very comfortable/ felt very safe. Unfortunately our room was not ready on time so we had to sit after an already long day. Also, no fruit or yogurt type options at breakfast. Room was not quiet.

Incredibly noisy room. Heard literally everybody. Was located on the first floor near the lobby though so expected. Quiet hours were not respectful. People in the lobby until at least midnight loudly laughing. Front desk did get me in early and were super friendly.

Clean, breakfast was good. Location was awesome to the ferry for the island and restaurants were so close! Girls at the reception desk were helpful and answered everything. Only thing i disliked was on our last night , some guy was trying to shove the paper bill under our door at 4am and it wouldn't come through and he just kept hitting the door. Finally he gave up and just left the bill reciept there...totally unprofessional!

You can tell this is an older hotel and it has been kept up and updated pretty well. The sauna was making a weird noise and had to be closed when we were there, and the hot tub area didn't seem the cleanest. Breakfast was plentiful and had good variety, the breakfast area felt a little cramped. Our room was sufficient, a little tight, but it was clean and the bed was comfortable. Nothing to write home about, but not a bad value for a very touristy area.
